7

Test and activate workflow

Test your workflow by running it manually. Once everything works, you can activate the workflow so that it runs automatically.

Alternative: Use HTTP Request Node

If you don’t want to use the community node or need advanced customizations, you can also use the standard “HTTP Request” node:
1

Add HTTP Request Node

Add an “HTTP Request” node to your workflow. This node allows you to send API requests to Fynn.
You can also use the “Webhook” node to receive webhooks from Fynn and respond to them.
2

Configure Fynn API

Configure the HTTP Request node with the following information:
  • Method: Select the appropriate HTTP method (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) based on the desired action
  • URL: Use the Fynn API URL: https://coreapi.io/v1/[endpoint]
  • Authentication: Select “Generic Credential Type” and add your API key as a header:
    • Name: Authorization
    • Value: Bearer [YOUR_API_KEY]
You can find your API key in Fynn under “Settings” > “API Keys”. Create a new API key if you don’t have one yet. For more information, see Create API Key.

Example Workflows with n8n

  • Create new invoice: Automate the creation of invoices based on certain events or data from other systems.
  • Customer synchronization: Synchronize customer data between Fynn and other systems such as CRM or email marketing tools.
  • Webhook processing: Receive webhooks from Fynn and process them to trigger actions in other systems.
  • Reports and analytics: Create automatic reports by retrieving data from Fynn and storing it in other tools like Google Sheets or Notion.

Create API Key

To connect n8n with Fynn, you need an API key. Here’s how to create one:
1

Open settings

Navigate in Fynn to “Settings” > “API Keys”.
2

Create new API key

Click ”+ Create API Key” and enter a name for the API key (e.g., “n8n Integration”).
3

Copy API key

After creation, the API key is displayed once. Copy it immediately and store it securely, as it cannot be displayed again later.
Keep your API key secure and do not share it with others. The API key grants access to your Fynn data.

Using Webhooks

Fynn supports webhooks that allow you to be notified in real-time about events in Fynn. You can use webhooks in n8n to respond to these events. For more information about webhooks, see the Webhook Documentation.
