Drag nodes onto the canvas, connect them in order, then grade or reveal the solution.
tone field (e.g. "professional", "casual", "witty"). Inject it into the system prompt so the model adapts its output accordingly.All models work with the n8n OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, and Ollama nodes. Swap models without changing workflow logic โ only credentials and model name change.
Use AI models to produce written content, summaries, and intelligent responses inside automated workflows.
Generate Text means invoking a language model (GPT-4, Claude, Gemini, Mistral) inside an n8n workflow to produce a natural language output โ a summary, reply, classification label, code snippet, or structured JSON from a prompt.
Use this skill when the output of a step needs to be written language: email drafts, support replies, content summaries, translation, sentiment labels, entity extraction, or any task where a human would normally read and write.
Every Generate Text step needs a prompt (the instruction) and optionally context (documents, previous messages, user data). The prompt is assembled from upstream node output using n8n expressions like {{ "{{" }}$json.body{{ "}}" }}.
Returns a text string in $json.text or $json.content depending on the node. You can chain the output into Send Email, Write Record, Send Message, or any node that accepts text.
Receive a form submission, generate a personalised reply with GPT-4, send it back. Powers auto-responders, lead follow-up, and support triaging.
Parse inbox messages, extract entities or classify intent, log structured output to a database. Reduces manual data entry to zero.
Ingest PDFs or CSVs, summarise contents with an LLM, return the digest to another system or display in a dashboard.
The conversational agent pattern. Retrieves prior context from a vector store, augments the prompt, generates a context-aware reply. Core of every AI chatbot built in n8n.
Process a list (products, tickets, articles) through an LLM in batch. Generate a summary or label for each item, then aggregate results into one output.
