What changed between two n8n workflows?

Paste two workflow exports. See every node added, removed, renamed, or reconfigured — in plain English. The same diff engine Keel runs on every change in production.

Old versionpaste the earlier workflow JSON
New versionpaste the current workflow JSON

This was one diff. Now imagine it watching every workflow.

Keel runs a tiny agent next to your n8n that snapshots and diffs every workflow automatically — then alerts you the second one changes or goes offline, and keeps a one-click rollback history. Find out what changed before your client does.

Questions

How do I get my workflow JSON from n8n?

In the n8n editor, open a workflow, click the ⋯ menu (top right) → Download, or copy the JSON. Paste the older export on the left and the newer one on the right.

Is my workflow data uploaded anywhere?

No. The comparison runs entirely in your browser with JavaScript — nothing is sent to a server. Close the tab and it's gone.

Why doesn't moving a node show as a change?

Node positions are visual noise, not real changes. The diff intentionally ignores them so you only see what actually affects how the workflow runs — the same engine Keel uses in production.

Can something watch all my workflows automatically?

Yes — that's Keel. A lightweight agent runs next to your n8n, snapshots every workflow, runs this exact diff on every change, alerts you, and keeps a rollback history. This tool is a single-shot taste of it.
