What is n8n?
n8n is an open-source workflow automation platform used by hundreds of thousands of developers and technical teams worldwide. Think of it as a visual canvas where you connect services together using nodes, each one representing an action or data source, to build automated workflows without having to write the glue code yourself.
It sits somewhere between Zapier (simple, cloud-only, limited) and writing a custom backend integration (fully flexible, but time-intensive). n8n gives you the visual, drag-and-drop workflow builder of a no-code tool alongside the depth and extensibility that technical users actually need. You can embed JavaScript or Python inside a workflow, connect directly to databases, and deploy the whole thing on your own infrastructure if data privacy matters to you.
The platform has over 400 built-in integrations. Community nodes extend that further, with nearly 2,000 packages published on npm. The Sportmonks node is one of them, built, signed, and verified on GitHub Actions with a full public transparency log.
