Home Assistant and VirusTotal integration
How to connect Home Assistant and VirusTotal
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.

To set up VirusTotal integration, add the HTTP Request node to your workflow canvas and authenticate it using a predefined credential type. This allows you to perform custom operations, without additional authentication setup. The HTTP Request node makes custom API calls to VirusTotal to query the data you need using the URLs you provide.
