Filescan and KoBoToolbox integration

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

How to connect Filescan and KoBoToolbox

  • 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 KoBoToolbox and Filescan (using the HTTP Request node)

You can find KoBoToolbox and Filescan nodes in the nodes panel and drag them onto your workflow canvas. KoBoToolbox node comes with pre-built credentials and supported actions. Filescan can be set up with the HTTP Request node using a pre-configured credential type. The HTTP Request node makes custom API calls to Filescan. Configure KoBoToolbox and Filescan nodes one by one: input data on the left, parameters in the middle, and output data on the right.

Step 3: Connect KoBoToolbox and Filescan

A connection establishes a link between KoBoToolbox and Filescan (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.

Step 4: Customize and extend your KoBoToolbox and Filescan integration

Use n8n's core nodes such as If, Split Out, Merge, and others to transform and manipulate data. Write custom JavaScript or Python in the Code node and run it as a step in your workflow. Connect KoBoToolbox and Filescan with any of n8n’s 1000+ integrations, and incorporate advanced AI logic into your workflows.
