Intro #
n8n is a node based software automation tool. I mainly use this to run periodic task.
my first use case #
tidal is not as popular as spotify #
there is a playlist that i want on tidal that is only currently available on spotify. It gets updated about every week. Doing this myself manually is a lot of work. Automating this is not. The spotify_to_tidal project already solves the bulk of the issue. Now to automate, so i installed it to my server linux os and set n8n to run the spotify_to_tidal command i want via ssh every week. Now I can use tidal like nothing has changed.
