No-code automation: create workflows between +600 services (Slack, Google Sheets, etc.). | Self-hosted app orchestrator. (PaaS). Ultra-simple web interface: one-click catalogue, updates, SSL certificates, backups. |
Open Source: you keep control of your data. | Ideal if you want to manage several applications on the same VPS without becoming a system administrator. |
CapRover template installed
Access to the CapRover dashboard: http: //XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:3000
(The ip of your VPS, included in the delivery email)
Connect
Go to https://captain.vps123.serveur-vps.net.
Log in with the admin password set previously.
Open the catalogue
Side menu --> App --> Apps/One-click databases.
Search for "n8n
Enter n8n in the search bar, click on the map that appears (we do not recommend the SQLite version for beginners, as it does not include an official image provided by n8n.io).
Fill in the install form
Field | What to put |
---|---|
App Name | Whatever you want, this will be used as a subdomain to join the application. |

Timezone | Europe/Paris if you are in France |
For a first start-up, the rest of the settings are optional. You can then click on "Deploy".
Need | Where to click |
---|---|
Update n8n | Apps → n8n app name → Deployment → method 6 → n8nio/n8n:1.93.0 (for example) |
Restore | Apps → n8n app name → Deployment → Version history, Status column |
View logs | Apps → n8n app name → Deployment → App log sections |
Restart | Apps → n8n app name → Save and Restart button. |
Explicit app name: if you manage several instances, use several names, automaton-marketing, automaton-dev, etc.
Environment variables: for API keys & co, go via Apps > app name n8n > App configurations > Environment variables
(avoids storing them in plain text in your workflows).
HTTPS everywhere: already managed by CapRover via Let's Encrypt, automatic renewal. ✅
