How to get started with Kibana and PagerDuty integration in n8n.io?

To start integrating Kibana and PagerDuty in n8n, you have different options depending on how you intend to use it: n8n Cloud: hosted solution, no need to install anything. Self-host: recommended method for full-control or customized use cases. Unlike other platforms that charge per operation, step, or task, n8n charges only for full workflow executions. This approach guarantees predictable costs and scalability, no matter the complexity or volume of your workflows.

How to connect Kibana and PagerDuty

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 PagerDuty and Kibana (using the HTTP Request node)

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

Step 3: Connect PagerDuty and Kibana

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

Step 5: Test and activate your PagerDuty and Kibana workflow

Save and run the workflow to see if everything works as expected. Based on your configuration, data should flow from PagerDuty to Kibana or vice versa. Easily debug your workflow: you can check past executions to isolate and fix the mistake. Once you've tested everything, make sure to save your workflow and activate it.
