n8n enables powerful workflow automation for Morta so you can automate repetitive tasks, trigger email notifications, and orchestrate complex workflows across your Morta hubs. Think of it as a visual automation engine for your hub: automatically process document response submissions, trigger compliance checks, move data between hubs, and create intelligent workflows that respond to project events.
Below are the core capabilities and bite-size use cases with short demos.
⚙️ Example automations at a glance
- Automatic classification: automatically classify documents in your synced CDE Morta table according to their description.
- PDF Text extraction: extract text (description, revision, scale, etc.) from drawing titleblocks and use it to compare against the MIDP
- Data Synchronization: Summarize and/or consolidate data in multiple hubs in a central hub
- Notification & Alerts: Send targeted notifications to project teams, stakeholders, and discipline leads based on project milestones or issues.
⚠️ Safety & constraints (read this first)
- No Undo: Automated data changes and schema modifications are permanent. Test workflows in sandbox environments before production deployment.
- API Rate Limits: Respect Morta's API limits (10 API calls per second) and implement appropriate delays in bulk operations to maintain system stability.
- Access Control: Use API keys with minimal required permissions and restrict workflow access to necessary hubs, documents and tables only.
- Data Sensitivity: Construction project data contains confidential information. Ensure automated workflows comply with client confidentiality and data protection requirements.
