What is n8n ?

n8n is an extendable workflow automation tool. With a fair-code distribution model, n8n will always have visible source code, be available to self-host, and allow you to add your own custom functions, logic and apps. n8n’s node-based approach makes it highly versatile, enabling you to connect anything to everything.

Usage


Start

You can try n8n without installing it using npx. You must have Node.js installed. From the terminal, run:

npx n8n

This command will download everything that is needed to start n8n. You can then access n8n and start building workflows by opening http://localhost:5678.


n8n cloud

Sign-up for an n8n cloud account.

While n8n cloud and n8n are the same in terms of features, n8n cloud provides certain conveniences such as:

  • Not having to set up and maintain your n8n instance
  • Managed OAuth for authentication
  • Easily upgrading to the newer n8n versions

Build with LangChain and AI in n8n

With n8n’s LangChain nodes you can build AI-powered functionality within your workflows. The LangChain nodes are configurable, meaning you can choose your preferred agent, LLM, memory, and so on. Alongside the LangChain nodes, you can connect any n8n node as normal: this means you can integrate your LangChain logic with other data sources and services.
