XML product feed from MySQL with XSL styling

# XML export of 16 random products from MySQL with XSL styling via webhook

This workflow fetches 16 random products from a MySQL database, structures them into XML using n8n, injects an XSL stylesheet link for browser rendering, and returns the result via webhook. It enables structured data delivery for external systems or direct visualization in browsers without additional processing.

## Who it´s for
- Developers integrating legacy systems with modern interfaces
- Analysts needing fast XML data exports
- Web application owners using XSL to render XML in browsers

## What the automation does
- Listens for incoming requests via HTTP webhook
- Queries 16 random products from MySQL
- Builds a clean XML structure using n8n transformation nodes
- Injects a reference to an XSL stylesheet for visual formatting
- Returns the styled XML response through the same webhook
- Serves the XSL file via a separate webhook that proxies content from GitHub Gist (CORS-compliant)

## What´s included
- Ready-to-use n8n workflow
- Trigger and handler logic
- Integrations with MySQL, GitHub Gist, and HTTP API
- Basic textual instructions for setup and adaptation

## Requirements for setup
- Access to an n8n instance
- MySQL database with a products table
- GitHub account (to host XSL via Gist)
- Configured environment variables (host, port, username, password for DB)

## Benefits and outcomes
- Fast generation of XML product feeds without manual export
- Browser-ready XML output with XSL styling
- Dynamic data refresh on every request
- Compatibility with external systems consuming XML
- Simple CORS workaround for remote XSL files
- Low server load — processing handled by n8n
- Flexibility for scaling or adapting data structure
