Installation

Follow the n8n community nodes installation guide.

Credentials

Create Anytype API credentials in n8n:

• Base URL:
  • Default: http://127.0.0.1:31009/v1
  • Change if your Anytype API is exposed elsewhere.
• API Version:
  • Default: 2025-11-08
  • Sent as the Anytype-Version header.
• API Key:
  • A token you pass as Authorization: Bearer <token>.

How to get an API key (outside this node)

Generate the API key with Anytype's official auth flow, then paste it into the n8n credential:

1. Create an auth challenge (POST /auth/challenges) with your app name
2. Check Anytype Desktop for the 4-digit code
3. Create the API key (POST /auth/api_keys) with the challenge ID and code

See Anytype docs: https://developers.anytype.io/docs/reference/2025-11-08/create-api-key/

Notes on pagination

Most “Get Many” endpoints return:

{ "data": [...], "pagination": { "offset": 0, "limit": 100, "has_more": true, "total": 123 } }

This node automatically returns only the data array as n8n items when using “Get Many”.

If you need the full raw response (including pagination) or unsupported endpoints, use n8n's
HTTP Request node with your Anytype base URL, Anytype-Version header, and Bearer API key.
