Overview
The Digital-Boss Market node allows you to install n8n nodes (custom packages) directly from the Digital Boss Market npm registry. This is particularly useful for users who want to extend their n8n instance with additional functionality provided by third-party or custom-developed nodes, without manual installation steps.
Common scenarios:
- Quickly adding new integrations or features to your n8n workflows.
- Keeping your n8n environment up-to-date with the latest community or proprietary nodes.
- Managing node installations in a controlled and repeatable way.
Practical example:
Suppose you need a connector for a service not available in the default n8n set. You can use this node to search for and install that package from https://npm.digital-boss.cloud, making it immediately available in your n8n instance.
Properties
| Name | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Package Name | options | The name of the package to install. Search and select from packages available at Digital Boss Market. |
Output
The node outputs a json object whose structure depends on the result of the installation operation. Typically, it will include information about the installed package, such as its name, version, and status of the installation process. The exact fields may vary depending on the backend response, but you can expect details confirming whether the package was successfully installed or if there were any errors.
