> **Important note:** Available on **all respond.io plans except Starter**.

The n8n integration allows you to connect your respond.io workspace with **n8n**, a powerful automation platform. With this integration, you can build advanced workflows using respond.io triggers and actions directly in n8n.

With this integration, you can:

* Automate complex workflows with low-code logic.
* Connect respond.io to hundreds of apps via n8n.
* Use respond.io triggers (e.g., new messages, Contact updates) inside n8n.
* Perform respond.io actions (e.g., send a message, update a Contact field) from n8n.

## What you’ll need

* An **Admin or Manager** role in respond.io.
* An **n8n account**
* An API key for n8n generated in  
respond.io (**Workspace Settings > Integrations > n8n**).

## Setting up the integration

### Step 1: Generate an API Key in respond.io

![](https://assets2-proxy.respond.io/ph8r57dk1q9w/74SyYBTVGBjb8dntK4Yjdg/e7d41a744b0da8dae317b83b31765b92/n8n1.png?fm=jpg&q=80&w=640)
1. In your respond.io Workspace, go to **Workspace settings** \> **Integrations** \> **n8n** and click **Connect.**
2. Copy the generated API key and store it securely.

> If needed, you can regenerate the API key anytime from this page.

### Step 2: Install the respond.io node in n8n

* For **n8n Cloud**: The node will appear in the marketplace (you'll need to install the node to start using it). Learn more about [installing nodes for n8n cloud](https://docs.n8n.io/integrations/community-nodes/installation/verified-install/#install-a-community-node).
* For **self-hosted n8n**: Manually install the respond.io node by following [n8n’s guide to installing community nodes](https://docs.n8n.io/integrations/community-nodes/installation/manual-install/).

> **respond.io node name**: `@respond-io/n8n-nodes-respond-io`

### Step 3: Build a Workflow in n8n

## FAQ and Troubleshooting

### Can I use the same API key for multiple workflows?

Yes, one API key can be reused across multiple workflows in the same workspace.

### What happens if I regenerate my API key?

All existing n8n workflows using the old key will stop working until updated with the new key.

### Is there a limit on the number of requests?

The integration follows the standard respond.io API rate limits.
