Config Loader

Loads and injects variables defined in the Config Loader Auth JSON credential

Overview

This node loads and injects variables defined in a JSON configuration stored in a credential. It is useful for dynamically loading configuration settings or environment variables into an n8n workflow from a centralized JSON source.

Use Case Examples

  1. Loading API keys, URLs, or other configuration parameters from a JSON credential to be used in subsequent workflow steps.
  2. Injecting environment-specific settings into workflows without hardcoding them in the workflow itself.

Output

JSON

- Properties loaded from the JSON configuration credential

Dependencies

  • An API key credential containing JSON configuration data

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the JSON in the credential is valid and properly formatted; otherwise, the node will throw an 'Invalid Config Loader JSON' error.
  • Verify that the credential named 'configLoaderAuth' is correctly set up and accessible to the node.
