Add n8n integration

[bukit]

n8n pls, it’s trending and yt influencer and their grandma are posting n8n tuts, activepieces is too bloated when installing/upgrading locally, unless you’re on cloud lifetime plan.

It’s basically sending a webhook payload (scm data, but different data for each tools) to automation platform api, and let the user handle the scm data sent in the platform itself.

Webhook Support

1. The problem No native/direct way to send SCM output to automation tool (n8n, activepieces, make, zapier etc). 2. Simple solution Create/integrate webhook support both within the software and API response, can be set up sent manually/scheduled/automated. 3. Screenshot examples [IMG_20240511_202441] This is a big request Thank you for considering.

If we talking about 2 way integration, scm must develop a tunnel service (Pinokio has this, for inspiration) or create tutorial using cloudflare/ngrok tunnel to expose local port so any automation platform can post/get to scm api endpoint.

Ok ll look into it.

Ill do what ever is easier as well first.

What kind of things would you like to do with SCM and n8n.

I need a example workflow so that I know what bits to add.

The SCM tasks is quiet complex, so I am thinking you won’t be able to create new tasks using n8n.

Instead you can start stop and edit keywords of a task as the limit of the automation with n8n.

For initial, the tasks that are already have scm api endpoint or Google sheet integration (sending task result to Google sheet api).

The idea is to

1. run scm task (via desktop/api)
2. send raw json result to n8n or other platform webhook via task automation.
3. Let user handle the raw data sent inside n8n platform.

n8n is great for AI agent workflow(scm tools as a toolkit for the agent) and app integrations.
