Elasticsearch and HTTP Request integration

Save yourself the work of writing custom integrations for Elasticsearch and HTTP Request and use n8n instead. Build adaptable and scalable Development, Data & Storage, workflows that work with your technology stack. All within a building experience you will love.

How to connect Elasticsearch and HTTP Request

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.

Elasticsearch and HTTP Request integration: Create a new workflow and add the first step

Build your own image search using AI object detection, CDN and ElasticSearch

This n8n workflow demonstrates how to automate indexing of images to build a object-based image search. By utilising a Detr-Resnet-50 Object Classification model, we can identify objects within an image and store these associations in Elasticsearch along with a reference to the image. How it works An image is imported into the workflow via HTTP request node. The image is then sent to Cloudflare's Worker AI API where the service runs the image through the Detr-Resnet-50 object classification model. The API returns the object associations with their positions in the image, labels and confidence score of the classification. Confidence scores of less the 0.9 are discarded for brevity. The image's URL and its associations are then index in an ElasticSearch server ready for searching. Requirements A Cloudflare account with Workers AI enabled to access the object classification model. An ElasticSearch instance to store the image url and related associations. Extending this workflow Further enrich your indexed data with additional attributes or metrics relevant to your users. Use a vectorstore to provide similarity search over the images.

Build your own Elasticsearch and HTTP Request integration

Create custom Elasticsearch and HTTP Request workflows by choosing triggers and actions. Nodes come with global operations and settings, as well as app-specific parameters that can be configured. You can also use the HTTP Request node to query data from any app or service with a REST API.

With Elasticsearch, you can store, search, and analyze massive amounts of data fast and in near real-time, with results arriving in milliseconds. Because it searches an index rather than the text itself, it can produce quick search results.
