How to connect Ably and Peekalink

Step 1: Create a new workflow
Step 2: Add and configure nodes
Step 3: Connect
Step 4: Customize and extend your integration
Step 5: Test and activate your workflow

Step 1: Create a new workflow and add the first step

In n8n, click the "Add workflow" button in the Workflows tab to create a new workflow. Add the starting point – a trigger on when your workflow should run: an app event, a schedule, a webhook call, another workflow, an AI chat, or a manual trigger. Sometimes, the HTTP Request node might already serve as your starting point.

Step 2: Add and configure Peekalink and Ably nodes (using the HTTP Request node)

You can find the Peekalink node in the nodes panel and drag it onto your workflow canvas. To add the Ably app to the workflow select the HTTP Request node and use the generic authentication method to make custom API calls to Ably. Configure Ably and Peekalink one by one: input data on the left, parameters in the middle, and output data on the right.

Step 3: Connect Peekalink and Ably

A connection establishes a link between Peekalink and Ably (or vice versa) to route data through the workflow. Data flows from the output of one node to the input of another. You can have single or multiple connections for each node.
