Workflow inspect tool
n8n Workflow Viewer
Paste an n8n workflow export and explore nodes, parameters, and connections on an interactive canvas—useful for reviews, handoffs, and sharing flows without opening the editor.
How to use this viewer
Inspect an n8n workflow export on an interactive canvas—read node parameters and connections without opening the full editor.
- Export from n8n
In your n8n editor, open the workflow menu and choose Download or Copy to clipboard. You need the full workflow JSON (nodes + connections), not a partial node export.
- Paste or drop the file
Paste the JSON into the text area, or drag a .json file onto the window. Invalid JSON or a file without a nodes array will show an error—fix the export and try again.
- Render the canvas
Click Render workflow (or Load demo to explore a sample pipeline). Nodes appear with their connections; use Fit view if the graph is larger than the viewport.
- Explore nodes
Click a node to open its detail panel (parameters, IDs, connections). Drag nodes to rearrange; pan the canvas with click-drag on empty space; zoom with the mouse wheel or the bottom toolbar.
- Import another workflow
On the canvas bar, use Load another to return to the paste screen and import a different export.
