How It Works

The US Phone Number Formatting workflow leverages n8n's powerful nodes to process incoming phone number data. It first triggers when new contact information is received, then uses conditional logic to strip non-numeric characters. The workflow validates the number's length and structure, applies consistent formatting rules, and transforms the input into a standardized (XXX) XXX-XXXX format. Additional error handling ensures only valid US phone numbers are processed, with optional routing for invalid entries.
