The Problem

Teams spend 20+ hours monthly exporting data from one system, reformatting it, and importing into another. Data gets stale, errors creep in during manual transfers, and reports are always based on outdated information.

How n8n Solves This

n8n creates real-time data bridges between your systems. When data changes in one place, it's automatically reflected everywhere else. Scheduled workflows compile data from multiple sources into comprehensive reports delivered via email or Slack.

As an n8n Verified Creator, I always recommend establishing a 'source of truth' for each data type. This eliminates most sync conflicts before they happen.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can n8n sync data in real-time?

Yes, using webhooks. When data changes in one system, it triggers an immediate sync to connected systems. For systems without webhooks, we use polling at your preferred interval.

What happens if there's a conflict between systems?

You define the rules. Common approaches: most recent wins, specific source is master, or flag for manual review. The workflow handles it automatically.

Can reports include charts and visualizations?

Yes, reports can be generated as formatted HTML emails with tables and charts, or exported to Google Sheets/Data Studio for interactive dashboards.

How do you handle large datasets?

n8n can process data in batches, use pagination for large exports, and implement rate limiting to respect API limits while still completing the sync.
