n8n to Amazon DynamoDB Integration

How Datrise loads n8n into Amazon DynamoDB

Datrise syncs n8n's workflows, executions, nodes, credentials, execution logs, and triggers into Amazon DynamoDB as an item per source record in a table per entity. Flexible or custom fields land in nested map/list attributes, and timestamps such as created, updated, and status changes are typed as ISO-8601 string or epoch number attributes.

Sync is incremental: Datrise uses PutItem/UpdateItem keyed on a partition key derived from the entity id, so re-runs update only what changed. Partition-key design on the entity id to spread throughput evenly. DynamoDB rewards access-pattern-first key design, so Datrise sets partition/sort keys from your entity ids rather than scan-heavy defaults.

Ideal for serverless apps needing single-digit-millisecond key lookups on CRM data.

How n8n entities map to Amazon DynamoDB

n8n entity	Amazon DynamoDB object	Notes
workflows	`n8n_workflows`	id PK · custom fields → nested map/list attributes
executions	`n8n_executions`	id PK · linked to n8n_workflows
nodes	`n8n_nodes`	id PK · linked to n8n_workflows
credentials	`n8n_credentials`	id PK · linked to n8n_workflows

FAQ

How does Datrise handle n8n's custom fields in Amazon DynamoDB?

Flexible values are stored as nested map/list attributes, so new fields don't require a migration; strongly-typed fields — dates, numbers, and references — are promoted to native Amazon DynamoDB types.

How does the n8n to Amazon DynamoDB sync stay up to date?

It runs incrementally — Datrise uses PutItem/UpdateItem keyed on a partition key derived from the entity id.
