# Future Enhancements This document outlines potential future enhancements for the n8n Workflow Builder MCP server. ## Workflow Management Enhancements ### Workflow Templates Implement support for workflow templates to make it easier to create common workflows. This would involve: - Creating a library of workflow templates for common use cases - Adding a `create_workflow_from_template` tool that creates a workflow from a template - Supporting customization of templates with parameters ### Workflow Versioning Add support for workflow versioning to track changes to workflows over time. This would involve: - Adding a `get_workflow_versions` tool to retrieve the version history of a workflow - Adding a `revert_workflow` tool to revert a workflow to a previous version - Implementing a diff mechanism to show changes between versions ### Workflow Import/Export Enhance the import/export capabilities to make it easier to share workflows between n8n instances. This would involve: - Adding an `export_workflow` tool to export a workflow to a file - Adding an `import_workflow` tool to import a workflow from a file - Supporting batch import/export of multiple workflows ### Workflow Cloning Add support for cloning workflows to make it easier to create variations of existing workflows. This would involve: - Adding a `clone_workflow` tool to create a copy of an existing workflow - Supporting customization of the cloned workflow with parameters ## Execution Management Enhancements ### Execution Retry Add support for retrying failed executions. This would involve: - Adding a `retry_execution` tool to retry a failed execution - Supporting customization of the retry behavior (e.g., retry count, delay) ### Execution Cancellation Add support for cancelling running executions. This would involve: - Adding a `cancel_execution` tool to cancel a running execution ### Execution Scheduling Enhance the execution scheduling capabilities. This would involve: - Adding a `schedule_execution` tool to schedule a workflow execution - Supporting complex scheduling patterns (e.g., cron expressions) - Adding a `get_scheduled_executions` tool to retrieve scheduled executions ### Execution Analytics Add support for execution analytics to provide insights into workflow performance. This would involve: - Adding a `get_execution_stats` tool to retrieve execution statistics - Supporting filtering and aggregation of execution data - Implementing visualization of execution data ## Credential Management Enhancements ### Credential Management Add support for managing credentials used by workflows. This would involve: - Adding a `list_credentials` tool to list all credentials - Adding a `create_credential` tool to create a new credential - Adding a `get_credential` tool to retrieve a credential - Adding a `update_credential` tool to update a credential - Adding a `delete_credential` tool to delete a credential ### Credential Sharing Add support for sharing credentials between workflows. This would involve: - Adding a `share_credential` tool to share a credential with another workflow - Adding a `unshare_credential` tool to unshare a credential ## Node Management Enhancements ### Node Discovery Add support for discovering available nodes in the n8n instance. This would involve: - Adding a `list_nodes` tool to list all available nodes - Adding a `get_node_details` tool to retrieve details about a specific node - Supporting filtering of nodes by category, functionality, etc. ### Node Configuration Add support for configuring nodes with recommended settings. This would involve: - Adding a `get_node_config` tool to retrieve the configuration options for a node - Adding a `configure_node` tool to configure a node with recommended settings - Implementing validation of node configuration ## Security Enhancements ### Role-Based Access Control Add support for role-based access control to restrict access to workflows and executions. This would involve: - Adding a `list_roles` tool to list all roles - Adding a `create_role` tool to create a new role - Adding a `get_role` tool to retrieve a role - Adding a `update_role` tool to update a role - Adding a `delete_role` tool to delete a role - Adding a `assign_role` tool to assign a role to a user - Adding a `unassign_role` tool to unassign a role from a user ### Audit Logging Add support for audit logging to track changes to workflows and executions. This would involve: - Adding a `get_audit_logs` tool to retrieve audit logs - Supporting filtering of audit logs by user, action, resource, etc. ## Integration Enhancements ### Integration with Other MCP Servers Add support for integrating with other MCP servers to enable more complex automation scenarios. This would involve: - Adding a `list_mcp_servers` tool to list all available MCP servers - Adding a `connect_mcp_server` tool to connect to another MCP server - Adding a `disconnect_mcp_server` tool to disconnect from an MCP server - Implementing a mechanism for sharing data between MCP servers ### Integration with External Systems Add support for integrating with external systems to enable more complex automation scenarios. This would involve: - Adding a `list_integrations` tool to list all available integrations - Adding a `connect_integration` tool to connect to an external system - Adding a `disconnect_integration` tool to disconnect from an external system - Implementing a mechanism for sharing data between the MCP server and external systems ## Performance Enhancements ### Caching Implement caching to improve performance for frequently accessed data. This would involve: - Adding a caching layer for workflow and execution data - Implementing cache invalidation strategies - Supporting configuration of cache settings ### Batch Operations Add support for batch operations to improve performance for bulk operations. This would involve: - Adding a `batch_create_workflows` tool to create multiple workflows in a single operation - Adding a `batch_update_workflows` tool to update multiple workflows in a single operation - Adding a `batch_delete_workflows` tool to delete multiple workflows in a single operation ## User Experience Enhancements ### Error Handling Improve error handling to provide more helpful error messages. This would involve: - Enhancing error messages with more context and suggestions - Implementing a mechanism for reporting errors to the user - Adding a `get_error_details` tool to retrieve detailed information about an error ### Documentation Enhance the documentation to make it easier to use the MCP server. This would involve: - Adding more examples and tutorials - Implementing interactive documentation - Adding a `get_documentation` tool to retrieve documentation for a specific feature ### Localization Add support for localization to make the MCP server accessible to users in different languages. This would involve: - Adding support for multiple languages - Implementing a mechanism for translating error messages and documentation - Adding a `set_language` tool to set the language for the MCP server ## Conclusion These future enhancements would make the n8n Workflow Builder MCP server more powerful, flexible, and user-friendly. They would enable more complex automation scenarios and make it easier for users to create, manage, and monitor their workflows.
