Hacker News and Missive integration

Save yourself the work of writing custom integrations for Hacker News and Missive and use n8n instead. Build adaptable and scalable Communication, and Marketing workflows that work with your technology stack. All within a building experience you will love.

How to connect Hacker News and Missive

  • 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 Hacker News and Missive nodes (using the HTTP Request node)

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

Step 3: Connect Hacker News and Missive

A connection establishes a link between Hacker News and Missive (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 Hacker News and Missive 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 Hacker News and Missive with any of n8n’s 1000+ integrations, and incorporate advanced AI logic into your workflows.
