Normally no changes should be needed, but if you are planning on reading/writing local files with n8n (for example, by using the *Write Binary File* node), you will need to configure a data directory for those files here. If you are running n8n as a root user, add this under `volumes` for the n8n service:
```yaml

If you are running n8n as a non-root user, add this under ``volumes`` for the n8n service:
If you are running n8n as a non-root user, add this under `volumes` for the n8n service:
- /home/<YOUR USERNAME>/n8n-local-files:/files``

- /home/<YOUR USERNAME>/n8n-local-files:/files
```
Then, you will be able to write files to the ``/files`` directory in n8n and they will appear on your server in either ``/local-files`` or ``/home/<YOUR USERNAME>/n8n-local-files``, respectively.
