🔥 How to Authenticate Jina AI in n8n Workflows: A Step-by-Step Guide 🚀

Integrating Jina AI into your n8n workflows can enhance automation tasks like web scraping and data processing. Here's a detailed guide to help you authenticate and configure the integration:

Obtain Your Jina AI API Key 🔑

You can use the Jina API without an API key, but in order to get reliable results you should at least use a free API key. To obtain your Jina API key follow these steps:

• Sign Up: Visit the Jina AI website and create an account.
• Access the API Dashboard: After logging in, navigate to the API Dashboard.
• Create an API Key: In the dashboard, click on 'Create API Key' to generate a new key. Each new key provides one million free tokens.

Configure the n8n HTTP Request Node for Jina AI Integration 🚀

With your API key ready, integrate Jina AI into your n8n workflows by configuring the HTTP Request node:

• Add the HTTP Request Node: In your n8n workflow, drag and drop the HTTP Request node.
• Set Request Method and URL:
  • Method: Select GET.
  • URL: Enter the specific Jina AI API endpoint you intend to use, such as the Reader API.

• Configure Authentication:
  • Authentication Method: Set to 'Header Auth'.

• Header Parameters:
  • Name: Authorization
  • Value: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY

This setup ensures that your API key is securely included in the request headers.

Test and Refine Your Workflow 🧪

After configuring the node:

• Run Tests: Execute the workflow with sample data to ensure it functions as intended.
• Debug: Utilize n8n's debugging tools to identify and resolve any issues.
• Optimize: Adjust parameters and configurations to enhance performance and meet your specific needs.
