Day 1: Setup & Basic Workflows

Set up your development environment and learn to create basic automation workflows with Telegram and web scraping.

MacOS Setup Commands

# Install Docker (if not installed)
brew install --cask docker

# Run n8n in Docker
docker run -it -p 5678:5678 -e N8N_BASIC_AUTH_ACTIVE=false n8nio/n8n

# For local data persistence (optional):
docker run -it -p 5678:5678 \
   -v ~/.n8n:/home/node/.n8n \
   -e N8N_BASIC_AUTH_ACTIVE=false n8nio/n8n

Practical Tasks

Task 1: Telegram Bot

Create a workflow that sends a welcome message to a Telegram bot when triggered.

• Use Telegram Bot node (create via @BotFather)
• Add Function node for text formatting

Task 2: Web Scraping

Parse product prices from Kazakhstani websites (e.g., Sulpak.kz).

• Use HTTP Request and HTML Extract nodes
• Example: Track iPhone 15 Pro price
• Send Telegram alert if price drops below 500,000 KZT

Checklist

n8n running locally at http://localhost:5678
Telegram bot receives messages
HTML parsing works without errors

Day 2: API Integration & Automation

Learn to work with APIs, create conditional branches, and integrate payment systems.

Ngrok Setup for Webhooks

# Install ngrok for public webhooks
brew install ngrok/ngrok/ngrok

# Start ngrok tunnel
ngrok http 5678

Practical Tasks

Task 1: Instagram Funnel

Create a lead collection workflow for Instagram.

• Use Webhook node (via ngrok) for form submissions
• Add IF node to filter by Kazakhstan location
• Send message via Telegram/WhatsApp (Twilio or ClickSend)

Task 2: Kaspi.kz Integration

Integrate with Kaspi.kz payment system.

• Use HTTP Request for payment link creation
• Process successful payments
• Send email receipt via Email node

Checklist

Webhook receives external data
Conditional workflows work correctly
Payment API integration tested

Day 3: Deployment & Final Project

Deploy n8n to VPS and create a complete Instagram funnel from lead to payment.

VPS Recommendations (Kazakhstan)

Hetzner Online

European servers, PayPal payments

Contabo

SEPA payments, international options

Localhost.kz

Local hosting, check Docker availability

VPS Deployment Commands (Ubuntu 20.04)

# Install Docker on VPS
sudo apt update && sudo apt install docker.io

# Run n8n with data persistence
docker run -d -p 80:5678 \
   -v ~/n8n:/home/node/.n8n \
   -e N8N_BASIC_AUTH_ACTIVE=false n8nio/n8n

# Configure reverse proxy (optional, for domain)
sudo apt install nginx
sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/default
# Add proxy config: proxy_pass http://localhost:5678;

Final Project: Instagram Funnel

Lead Collection

Instagram form → Webhook → n8n

Communication
