n8n-nodes-agnicwallet
N8N community node for AgnicWallet - automated Web3 payments for X402-enabled APIs.
⭐ If you find this node useful, please star the repository on GitHub!
Make HTTP requests to X402-enabled APIs with automatic blockchain payment handling via AgnicWallet. No manual wallet management, no complex crypto operations - just authenticate and automate.
What is X402?
X402 is an open standard for HTTP-based payments. APIs return a 402 Payment Required status with payment details, and your wallet automatically handles the payment to unlock the resource.
What is AgnicWallet?
AgnicWallet is a non-custodial Web3 wallet service that handles blockchain payments automatically. Connect once, then all X402 payments happen seamlessly in the background.
Features
- ✅ Automatic X402 payment handling - No manual wallet interactions
- ✅ OAuth2 authentication - Secure connection to your AgnicWallet
- ✅ API Key support - For programmatic access and CI/CD
- ✅ Multiple HTTP methods - GET, POST, PUT, DELETE
- ✅ Custom headers - Add any headers your API needs
- ✅ JSON body support - For POST/PUT requests
- ✅ Payment metadata - See exactly what you paid and when
- ✅ Monthly spending limits - Built-in safety controls
- ✅ Multi-chain support - Base (EVM) and Solana networks, both testnet and mainnet
Installation
For self-hosted N8N:
npm install -g n8n-nodes-agnicwallet
Then restart N8N:
n8n start
For Docker:
Add to your Dockerfile:
FROM n8nio/n8n:latest
USER root
RUN npm install -g n8n-nodes-agnicwallet
USER node
For n8n.cloud:
Not yet available. This node must first be approved as a community node by the N8N team.
Setup
1. Create AgnicWallet Account
- Go to AgnicWallet
- Sign up with email/social login
- Your embedded wallet is created automatically
2. Connect to N8N
Option A: OAuth2 (Recommended)
- In N8N, add the AgnicWallet X402 Request node
- Select OAuth2 authentication
- Click Connect my account
- Authorize AgnicWallet in the popup
- Done! Your wallet is connected
Option B: API Key
- Log in to AgnicWallet
- Go to Settings → API Tokens
- Generate a new token
- In N8N, select API Key authentication
- Paste your token
- Done!
Usage
Basic Example: X402 Protected Content
Simple GET request with automatic payment:
- Method:
GET - URL:
https://www.x402.org/protected
What happens:
- Node makes GET request to protected endpoint
- Receives
402 Payment Requiredwith payment details - Automatically signs payment ($0.01 USDC) with your AgnicWallet
- Retries request with payment proof
- Returns protected content with payment metadata
Response:
{
"data": "<!DOCTYPE html>...<h1>Protected Content</h1><p>Your payment was successful!...</p>",
"_agnicWallet": {
"paymentMade": true,
"amountPaid": 0.01,
"timestamp": "2025-10-28T13:46:44.079Z"
}
}
Advanced Example: ChatGPT with X402
For POST requests with JSON body, see the advanced integration example in the documentation.
Example: Dynamic Content
Use N8N expressions for dynamic requests:
- Body:
{ "model": "gpt-3.5-turbo", "messages": [ {"role": "user", "content": "{{ $json.userMessage }}"} ] }
This pulls the message from previous nodes in your workflow.
Configuration Options
Authentication
- OAuth2 (recommended) - Secure account connection
- API Key - For automation and CI/CD
HTTP Methods
- GET
- POST
- PUT
- DELETE
Headers
Add multiple custom headers as key-value pairs
Body (POST/PUT only)
JSON body for sending data to the API
How It Works
- Make request - Node sends HTTP request to X402 API
- Check for 402 - If API returns
402 Payment Required, node extracts payment details - Sign payment - Node calls AgnicWallet backend to sign payment with your wallet
- Retry request - Node retries with
X-PAYMENTheader containing payment proof - Return response - API validates payment and returns protected resource
Backend Service
This node requires the AgnicWallet backend API to function. This is by design and secure.
How It Works
- You create a free account at AgnicWallet
- You authorize n8n to use your wallet (OAuth2 or API Key)
- When making X402 requests, the node calls
api.agnicpay.xyzto sign payments on your behalf - Your wallet is non-custodial (keys managed securely, not stored by AgnicWallet)
Why This Architecture?
- No blockchain complexity - You don't manage private keys or gas fees
- Automatic payments - Sign once, automate forever
- Spending controls - Set monthly limits for safety
- Standard pattern - Just like Slack, Notion, and other n8n nodes that use external APIs
Backend API Details
- Hosted at:
api.agnicpay.xyz(free to use) - Authentication: OAuth2 or API Key
- What it does: Signs X402 payments with your authorized wallet
- Open source: You can self-host by setting
AGNICWALLET_API_URLenvironment variable
This is the same architecture used by most n8n community nodes that interact with external services.
Payment Details
- Network: Base Sepolia (testnet)
- Token: USDC
- Typical cost: $0.01 per request
- Monthly limit: $100 (configurable)
- Payment method: EIP-3009 TransferWithAuthorization (gasless)
Security
- Non-custodial - Your keys, your crypto
- OAuth2 - Industry-standard authentication
- Spending limits - Monthly caps prevent overspending
- Payment review - See all payments in AgnicWallet dashboard
- Revocable access - Disconnect N8N anytime
FAQ
Is my wallet safe?
Yes! AgnicWallet is non-custodial. Your private keys are managed securely using industry-standard key management infrastructure, never stored on AgnicWallet servers. The backend only signs transactions you've authorized.
Do I need to trust AgnicWallet?
Yes, but only as much as you trust Slack, Notion, or Google when using their n8n nodes. You're authorizing AgnicWallet to sign X402 payments on your behalf within your spending limits.
Can I use this node without AgnicWallet?
No. This node is specifically designed to work with AgnicWallet's backend API. However, you can:
- Fork this node and modify it to use your own payment service
- Self-host the AgnicWallet backend (set
AGNICWALLET_API_URLenvironment variable)
Is the backend API free?
Yes! The AgnicWallet service is free to use. You only pay blockchain transaction costs (USDC payments).
What if api.agnicpay.xyz goes down?
- Your workflows will fail with payment signing errors
- Advanced users can self-host the backend for redundancy
- Check status at https://app.agnicpay.xyz
Can n8n approve a node with external dependencies?
Absolutely! Most popular n8n community nodes depend on external APIs:
- Slack → api.slack.com
- GitHub → api.github.com
- Stripe → api.stripe.com
- AgnicWallet → api.agnicpay.xyz ✅
This is standard practice and well-documented in the node's README.
Troubleshooting
"Payment signing failed"
Causes:
- AgnicWallet credentials not connected
- Insufficient USDC balance
- Backend server down
Solutions:
- Reconnect credentials in N8N
- Check balance at AgnicWallet
- Check backend status
"Request failed after payment"
Causes:
- Invalid URL
- Wrong headers
- Malformed JSON body
Solutions:
- Verify URL is correct
- Check required headers for the API
- Validate JSON syntax
"Body field not visible"
The body field only appears when Method is POST or PUT. For GET requests, no body is shown (HTTP standard).
