Automated PDF Merging with n8n Workflow

somdn_product_page

This n8n workflow automates the process of downloading two PDF files from remote URLs, merging them into a single PDF, and saving the result to disk. Initiated manually, it is ideal for scenarios requiring quick and automated document merging without manual intervention.

The workflow begins with a manual trigger, allowing the user to start the process at will. It then displays a sticky note with authentication instructions for ConvertAPI, which is necessary for the PDF merging service. The workflow proceeds to download two separate PDF files from specified remote URLs via HTTP requests.

Once the PDFs are downloaded, the files are sent to ConvertAPI’s PDF merge endpoint through an HTTP request, which combines the two documents into a single PDF. The merged PDF file is then written to disk as ‘document.pdf’.

This automation is practical for tasks such as consolidating reports, combining multiple documents for presentation, or streamlining document management workflows, especially when needing to merge PDFs frequently or on demand.
