Automated DigitalOcean Droplet Snapshot Management

This n8n workflow automates the management of DigitalOcean droplet snapshots to ensure efficient backups without exceeding storage limits. It triggers every 48 hours, retrieves all droplets, and systematically manages snapshots by deleting the oldest ones if a set limit (default of 4) is exceeded, then creates new snapshots for each droplet. The workflow involves listing droplets via an HTTP request, retrieving existing snapshots, filtering to delete excess snapshots, and creating fresh backups. Built for developers and system administrators, this process helps maintain optimal storage use, automate routine backup tasks, and enhance disaster recovery preparedness.
