How to connect Kafka and OpenCTI

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.

Build your own Kafka and OpenCTI integration

Create custom Kafka and OpenCTI 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.

To set up OpenCTI 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 OpenCTI to query the data you need using the URLs you provide.

Requires additional credentials set up

Use n8n's HTTP Request node with a predefined or generic credential type to make custom API calls.
