    It's unreal how good and clear this is!! I have never worked with APIs nor their documentation, and this video showed me both n8n and how to read the documentation and what to look for. Thanks a lot!!

    Awesome! Thanks, Ben. I love your tutorials and look forward to your videos! I have the impression that you're the only one on N8N who comes up with topics that interest me. I'm a beginner, and you're one of the few whose explanations I understand. I subscribe and ring the bell 😁

    Another tutorial suggestion: how to format code output to make sure the next node will iterate over it. Liked and subbed btw :)

    One basic questions. In n8n we are storing all API key and secret information in the individual component. How we can secure these information like read those senisitve information from some key-vault and while reading how to encrypt.. I hope n8n has some feature around this. Any video relate to this ll really helpful

      For all native n8n nodes including their HTTP Request node, you should store any API keys in n8n's "Credentials" manager and access them accordingly. With the HTTP Request node, this is accessed in their "Authentication" dropdown option. You don't want to store the API Key within the node.

    Is it just me or does your sound have a metallic echo? Only in this video...

      Yes sorry! I was testing a new mic I bought, but I haven't quite tuned it properly yet. Will have this fixed in the next video.

    Really great tutorials. I watch a lot of these and yours are really well done and easy to follow. You're also covering concepts that I don't find elsewhere - queue mode is a great example. I've been looking for a way to scale my n8n and this sounds like a great solution. I was already using Railway so I just setup a new instance with the webhook processors following your instructions.
    The only issue I've run into is setting up the Google Drive and other Google credentials. I've done it several times before, but the redirect uri isn't working. I keep getting this error:
    Cannot GET /rest/oauth2-credential/callback
    I took the one straight out of the n8n credential setup. I've tried a url using my custom domain also and it doesn't work either. Have you run into this issue before?

      I haven't run across this issue before. Perhaps try posting your issue in the community forum?

    Great! Thanks. What happens when a user does not provide all parameters? Suppose 'units' is mandatory parameters, LLM will ask for it? Or api call won't be executed?

    • @BenYoungAI
      @BenYoungAI  3 місяці тому

      If it's a mandatory parameter, the API will likely give you an error saying that you're missing a mandatory parameter.

    Is it possible to make n8n ia chatbot ask for parameters no given by user to make api request?

    How to do it when the api needs to be verified from the user to the api server? Like with an excess token an bearer

      You would have to put your credentials in the Authentication dropdown and select the appropriate credential type.
