How to Trigger n8n from a Form (Ollama + GPT on Docker Desktop)
How to Trigger n8n from a Form (Ollama + GPT on Docker Desktop)
🔥 Practical tutorial showing how to trigger an n8n workflow from a form, using Ollama + GPT, with n8n version 2.1 running on Docker Desktop on Windows inside a Virtual Machine with Hyper-V.
🔥 How the Form Trigger works in n8n, how to capture and test variables sent from the form, and how to forward this data to a local offline Ollama model as well as an online GPT model.
🔥 Everything is executed in a local/self-hosted environment with Docker Desktop, running inside a virtual machine configured with Hyper-V, focused on real automation and functional workflows.
The goal of this tutorial is to demonstrate:
✔ How to trigger an n8n workflow from a form in both virtualized and non-virtualized environments
✔ How to work with form variables inside n8n
✔ How to properly integrate n8n with Ollama (localhost) + online GPT
✔ How to validate form data before sending it to the model
Stack used in this video:
✔ n8n (self-hosted)
✔ Form Trigger / Form Input
✔ Variable handling and testing
✔ Ollama + GPT
✔ Docker Desktop on Windows
✔ Hyper-V
This content is ideal for developers, automation professionals, and n8n users who want to create form-triggered workflows, integrate LLMs, and keep everything running in a local Docker environment as the host, or locally with Hyper-V from a host machine.
