This n8n workflow connects to a Magento 2 store and automatically updates product images that are missing alt tags (labels). It fetches product data via the Magento 2 REST API, identifies media gallery entries with empty or null labels, and updates them by assigning the corresponding product name as the alt text. This is useful for: Improving SEO and accessibility by ensuring all product images have descriptive alt tags. Automating manual content cleanup tasks for product catalogs. Keeping your store compliant with basic accessibility and usability standards. ⚙️ How It Works Manual Trigger The workflow is designed to run manually or on a schedule (can be modified). Fetch Product Data The Get All Product Skus HTTP node pulls a paginated list of products using Magento's REST API The Split Out and Loop Over Items nodes iterate through each product. Filter Products With Images The If node checks if a product has at least one image. Label Missing Alt Texts The Code node inspects each image's label field. If it's empty or null, it sets it to the product’s name. Update Back to Magento 2 The HTTP Request (PUT) node updates each product using Magento’s V1/products/:sku endpoint, sending the updated image labels back to the store. 🧠 Use Case Problem: Magento 2 stores often have hundreds or thousands of product images, and it’s common to miss assigning alt text (label) to all of them—especially for bulk-imported or older products. Solution: This workflow ensures every product image has an alt label (minimum: product name), thus improving: Search engine optimization (SEO) Product discovery Accessibility compliance (WCAG) Store quality score (for marketplaces or audits) 🧪 Requirements Magento 2 REST API access A valid Bearer Token for Magento 2 Magento endpoint URL Basic understanding of how your store handles image paths and media entries 🔒 Credentials Required Magento 2 Bearer Auth: Set up as a credential in n8n using your Magento 2 API access token. 🛠️ Modifications You Can Make Increase the pageSize in the GET request to process more products per run. Set up a Cron trigger to run this regularly. Update other missing fields like position, disabled, or types programmatically. Include logging or email notifications after each batch update. 🧰 Helpful For Magento Developers & Store Managers SEO/Accessibility Compliance Teams Automation Engineers managing eCommerce workflows 📂 Category E-commerce → Magento 2 (Adobe Commerce) 💬 Need Help? 💡 Having trouble setting it up or want to customize this workflow further?
