Prerequisites

Before you can integrate N8N with VISS.AI, you need:

- A paid N8N subscription - The N8N app integration requires a paid plan, not the free tier

- Access to your N8N instance - You should be able to log into your N8N platform

- Admin permissions - You need to access API settings in your N8N account

Step 1: Get Your N8N API Key

1. Log into your N8N platform

2. Navigate to Settings

- Look for the gear icon or "Settings" in your N8N interface

3. Go to N8N API section

- Find the API or Integrations section in settings

4. Generate or retrieve your API key

- If you don't have one, create a new API key

- Copy the API key and save it securely

- Important: Keep this key private and don't share it

Step 2: To Trigger N8N workflows within your agents - Find Your N8N Domain

1. Look at your N8N web URL while logged in

2. Extract the domain portion from the URL

Example:

- If your N8N URL is: https://your-company-name.app.n8n.cloud/home/workflows

- Your N8N domain is: your-company-name.app.n8n.cloud

Common N8N domain formats:

- .app.n8n.cloud (N8N Cloud)

- .n8n.io (Custom domains)

- your-server.com (Self-hosted instances)

3. Retrieve your N8N workflow webhook URI. Example: webhook/d4dda6d2-d716-4c14-b847-095075064a6b

4.Make sure that your N8N workflow is Active

Step 3: Prompt your Agent to trigger N8N workflows

1. Let your Agent use the N8N App

2. Prompt by: Entering your N8N domain from Step 2 & other body data that will be within the request to N8N API.

Here is a Prompt Example:
