Documentation Workflow
From Notes to Organized Documents
Manual documentation wastes hours each week — copying notes, formatting, and updating files.
The Convex Documentation Workflow automates that process.
Using n8n, OpenAI, and AgentKit, it turns scattered notes, messages, and emails into clean, organized documents that match your templates and storage systems.
You keep structure and consistency — without hiring an assistant or spending weekends formatting reports.
How the Documentation Workflow Works
This workflow brings together three core components — n8n for workflow logic, OpenAI for natural-language understanding, and AgentKit for automation orchestration.
Each one handles a stage of the documentation lifecycle: capture, structure, and publish.
Step-by-Step Workflow
01
Capture Input Automatically
Your team drops files, notes, or emails into a shared folder (Google Drive, Notion, or Dropbox).
n8n detects the new content instantly.
02
Summarize and Structure the Text
OpenAI reads the text, removes noise, and formats it into clear sections — e.g. “Client Summary,” “Next Steps,” or “Meeting Outcomes.”
03
Apply Your Templates
AgentKit or n8n inserts the content into your document layout or internal template — consistent fonts, headers, and structure every time.
04
Save and Distribute
Final documents are automatically saved in your designated location (Drive, Notion, or SharePoint) and optionally emailed to your team or client.
Tools Behind the Workflow
n8n
Detects new files, connects data sources, and triggers automation flows.
OpenAI API
Summarizes, rewrites, and organizes text into professional structure.
AgentKit
Applies templates, names files, and delivers final versions to storage or email.
Supported integrations:
Google Drive, Notion, SharePoint, Slack, Dropbox, Gmail, and over 300+ n8n-compatible apps.
Why Automate Documentation?
In most businesses, documentation is an afterthought — until it becomes a bottleneck.
Automating this step means everything from meeting notes to client summaries gets captured, formatted, and stored the same way every time.
Core benefits:
Standardized documents with consistent formatting
Instant summaries from long notes or chats
Automatic version control and file naming
No missed updates or misplaced files
Ready-to-share deliverables with zero effort
Real-World Example
Use Case:
A small business used to manually clean and organize client notes after every strategy call. Now, their team drops raw notes into a Drive folder — and within minutes:
AI summarizes key discussion points.
Documents are formatted and filed under the right client folder.
A “summary ready” notification appears in Slack.
Result:
4+ hours saved per week per team member
Consistent documentation across all accounts
Zero backlog or missing files
