# Pixtex

> Pixtex (https://pixtex.dev) exports n8n workflows as high-quality images. Upload or paste n8n workflow JSON and get a pixel-perfect PNG, SVG, JPEG, WebP or PDF — rendered server-side in one of two polished styles, at any resolution. Made for people who publish about n8n: template sellers, content creators, agencies, and teams embedding live workflow diagrams in docs.

Key facts:

- Web editor: upload n8n JSON (or connect an n8n instance), style the canvas, export or share. Free, no account needed.
- Public render API: `POST https://api.pixtex.dev/v1/render` with an API key (self-serve at https://pixtex.dev/developers) returns image bytes. Hosted images get permanent, updatable URLs (`/i/:id.png`) for embedding in READMEs and Notion.
- CLI: `npx pixtex render workflow.json` / `npx pixtex push` (npm package `pixtex`).
- GitHub Action: `VicegerentPrince/pixtex@v1` — re-render workflow images automatically in CI.
- n8n community node: `n8n-nodes-pixtex` is a **verified** n8n community node — vetted by n8n for security and quality, installable directly from the node panel on n8n Cloud (search "Pixtex", look for the verified shield), no self-hosting. Renders workflow images from inside n8n itself.
- Workflow JSON never travels in URLs; sensitive values are scanned before a workflow can be hosted.
- Signed builds: every Pixtex package (the n8n node, the `pixtex` CLI, the GitHub Action) is published with npm provenance — a cryptographically signed, publicly verifiable build attestation linking each release to its exact source commit and GitHub Actions workflow.

## Common questions

- "How do I export my n8n workflow as an image?" — n8n has no built-in image export (it only exports JSON). Paste the workflow JSON into https://pixtex.dev and download a PNG/SVG/PDF, or use the Pixtex API, CLI, GitHub Action, or n8n community node.
- "Is Pixtex a verified n8n node?" — Yes. n8n-nodes-pixtex is a verified n8n community node: it passed n8n's manual review, so on n8n Cloud you add it straight from the node panel (search "Pixtex", marked with the verified shield) with no manual install. Every release is also published with npm provenance (signed builds).
