How to get started with Mattermost and TextKit integration in n8n.io?

To start integrating Mattermost and TextKit 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 Mattermost and TextKit

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 Mattermost and TextKit nodes (using the HTTP Request node)

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

Step 3: Connect Mattermost and TextKit

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

Step 5: Test and activate your Mattermost and TextKit workflow

Save and run the workflow to see if everything works as expected. Based on your configuration, data should flow from Mattermost to TextKit 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.

Build your own Mattermost and TextKit integration

Create custom Mattermost and TextKit 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.
