Automation

n8n — flexible automation around your SAP core

We use n8n to orchestrate workflows that connect SAP with the long tail of tools your business actually runs on — fast to build, easy to change, fully under your control.

Overview

What it is, and why it matters

n8n is an open, source-available workflow automation engine. It complements SAP's own integration tooling for the lighter, fast-moving automations: notifications, approvals, data syncs and glue between SaaS apps that don't justify a full iFlow.

Because it's self-hostable, your data and credentials stay in your environment. We design workflows that are observable and maintainable, and we're clear about where n8n fits versus Integration Suite — using the right tool for each job.

FAQ

Questions, answered

For lightweight, fast-changing glue between many SaaS tools, n8n is quicker and cheaper. Mission-critical SAP integration stays in Integration Suite.

Self-hosted n8n keeps data in your environment; we apply the same security discipline as any production integration.
