Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| list_workflowsA | List workflows on the n8n instance. Returns id, name, active state, tags and dates. Supports cursor pagination. |
| get_workflowA | Get a full workflow by ID, including nodes, connections and settings. |
| create_workflowA | Create a new workflow (created inactive; use activate_workflow to enable it). 'nodes' and 'connections' are JSON in n8n's standard export format. |
| update_workflowA | Replace an existing workflow (PUT). Pass the full workflow JSON (typically the result of get_workflow with modifications); read-only fields (id, active, tags, dates) are stripped automatically. |
| activate_workflowA | Activate a workflow (starts running on its triggers). |
| deactivate_workflowA | Deactivate a workflow (stops responding to its triggers). |
| delete_workflowA | Permanently delete a workflow. ⚠️ Irreversible — confirm with the user before using. |
| list_executionsA | List workflow executions. Useful for debugging: filter by status ('error', 'success', 'waiting') or by workflowId. |
| get_executionA | Get the details of an execution. With includeData=true it returns per-node data (can be very large) — ideal for diagnosing errors. |
| delete_executionA | Delete an execution record. ⚠️ Irreversible. |
| list_tagsC | List the tags available on the n8n instance. |
| check_connectionA | Verify that the n8n instance responds and the API key is valid. |
