How it works
n8n supports our /api/v1 endpoints via standard HTTP Request and Webhook nodes. Most n8n users are self-hosting; the integration uses scheduled HTTP nodes plus custom Function nodes to fit the destination's data model. For full setup help, custom integration support is available during onboarding.
Live workflows
Self-hosted signal pipeline
n8n workflows pull /api/v1 data on a schedule, transform it via Function nodes, and push to any destination, CRM, database, Slack, email, all under the user's own infrastructure control.
AI-enhanced flows
n8n's growing AI-node ecosystem (LangChain, OpenAI, Anthropic) lets users layer LLM reasoning on top of signal alerts, e.g., 'summarize this week's accelerating companies for a partner-meeting brief.'
