description: 'Full workflow update. Requires complete nodes[] and connections{}. For incremental use n8n_update_partial_workflow.',
keyParameters: ['id', 'nodes', 'connections'],
example: 'n8n_update_full_workflow({id: "wf_123", nodes: [...], connections: {...}})',
performance: 'Network-dependent',
tips: [
'Must provide complete workflow',
'Use update_partial for small changes',
'Validate before updating'
]

full: {
description: 'Performs a complete workflow update by replacing the entire workflow definition. Requires providing the complete nodes array and connections object, even for small changes. This is a full replacement operation - any nodes or connections not included will be removed.',
parameters: {
id: { type: 'string', required: true, description: 'Workflow ID to update' },
name: { type: 'string', description: 'New workflow name (optional)' },
nodes: { type: 'array', description: 'Complete array of workflow nodes (required if modifying structure)' },

returns: 'Updated workflow object with all fields including the changes applied',
examples: [
'n8n_update_full_workflow({id: "abc", name: "New Name"}) - Rename only',
'n8n_update_full_workflow({id: "xyz", nodes: [...], connections: {...}}) - Full structure update',
'const wf = n8n_get_workflow({id}); wf.nodes.push(newNode); n8n_update_full_workflow(wf); // Add node'
],
useCases: [
'Major workflow restructuring',
'Bulk node updates',
'Workflow imports/cloning',
'Complete workflow replacement',
'Settings changes'
],
performance: 'Network-dependent - typically 200-500ms. Larger workflows take longer. Consider update_partial for better performance.',
bestPractices: [
'Get workflow first, modify, then update',
'Validate with validate_workflow before updating',
'Use update_partial for small changes',
'Test updates in non-production first'
],
pitfalls: [
'Requires N8N_API_URL and N8N_API_KEY configured',
'Must include ALL nodes/connections',
'Missing nodes will be deleted',
'Can break active workflows',
'No partial updates - use update_partial instead'
],
