Complex Trigger

This n8n workflow is configured to perform a weekly, automated backup operation. It is scheduled to trigger every Monday at 2:45 AM using a CRON expression. The visible nodes indicate that a key action involves uploading a zip file to an SFTP server. The file is dynamically named `zigbee_backup_` with a timestamp, suggesting it contains data related to a Zigbee system, and is stored in a `zigbee_backups` directory. While the full workflow structure, including how the Zigbee data is sourced and zipped, is not entirely visible, the presence of the MQTT service suggests it might be involved in data collection. The primary function inferred is to ensure regular, timestamped backups of Zigbee-related information are securely transferred to an external SFTP storage location, providing a reliable disaster recovery measure.
