Integration

n8n integration

n8n public API for a self-hosted or cloud n8n instance. List, create, update, activate, archive and delete workflows and read their versions and tags, browse and retry or stop executions, manage credentials and read a credential type's schema, drive projects, folders and their members, run data tables and their columns and rows, manage users, roles, variables and tags, read the security audit and insight summaries, configure log-streaming destinations, OIDC, SAML, LDAP and OpenTelemetry, and pull from source control. The host is part of the credential because every install is its own deployment. Authentication is an API key created in the n8n UI and sent in the X-N8N-API-KEY header.

Ask it in chat

Say what should happen.
The workflow builds itself.

When this happens, do that in n8n.Built from the 129 n8n tools below, on the connection you add once.

What you can do with n8n

Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.

Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Use n8n from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex

Connect n8n in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its n8n operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.

Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"
Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)
[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"

[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"
Cursor, Claude Desktop and other JSON configs
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "livecontext": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://livecontext.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Set up the MCP server step by step

How to connect n8n

  1. Create your workspace

    Sign up free. Nothing to install.

  2. Connect n8n once

    Add your n8n connection in Settings. Every tool from this integration reuses it, and secrets are encrypted at rest and visible only to you.

  3. Describe the job in chat

    The workflow builds itself in front of you and picks the endpoints it needs. Drag the steps yourself on the canvas whenever you would rather be explicit.
