Grafana Tool MCP Server - All 16 Operations
This n8n workflow provides a robust foundation for integrating with a Grafana Tool via the Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. It acts as a central trigger point for various operations related to Grafana tools, enabling external systems or AI models to interact with Grafana functionalities.
What it does
This workflow primarily serves as a trigger for a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, specifically designed for Grafana tool operations.
- Listens for MCP Server Requests: The workflow starts with an "MCP Server Trigger" node, which actively listens for incoming requests conforming to the Model Context Protocol.
- Facilitates Grafana Tool Interactions: It is configured to handle requests related to a "Grafana Tool," implying it's ready to receive and process commands or queries aimed at a Grafana instance.
- Provides a Root for Further Automation: While the current workflow is minimal, it establishes the necessary entry point for a comprehensive suite of 16 different Grafana operations. Subsequent nodes would be added after this trigger to implement the specific logic for each operation.
Prerequisites/Requirements
- n8n Instance: You need a running n8n instance to import and execute this workflow.
- Model Context Protocol (MCP) Client: An external system or AI model capable of sending requests formatted according to the MCP to your n8n instance.
- Grafana Instance: Although not directly configured in this basic trigger, a Grafana instance will be required for the full implementation of the 16 operations this workflow is designed to support.
Setup/Usage
- Import the Workflow:
- In your n8n instance, go to "Workflows."
- Click "New" or "Import Workflow."
- Paste the provided JSON content into the import dialog.
- Activate the Workflow:
- Once imported, ensure the workflow is "Active" (toggle the switch in the top right corner).
- Configure MCP Client:
- Your MCP client (e.g., an AI agent, another n8n workflow, or a custom application) needs to be configured to send requests to the webhook URL exposed by this "MCP Server Trigger" node. You can find this URL by clicking on the "MCP Server Trigger" node and looking for the "Webhook URL" in its settings.
- Extend for Specific Operations:
- This workflow currently only provides the trigger. To implement the "16 operations" hinted at by the directory name, you would add subsequent nodes (e.g., HTTP Request nodes, Grafana nodes, conditional logic, etc.) after the "MCP Server Trigger" to handle different types of Grafana tool requests.

By Daniel NkenchoAutomate Dutch Public Procurement Data Collection with TenderNed
TenderNed Public Procurement What This Workflow Does This workflow automates the collection of public procurement data from TenderNed (the official Dutch tender platform). It: Fetches the latest tender publications from the TenderNed API Retrieves detailed information in both XML and JSON formats for each tender Parses and extracts key information like organization names, titles, descriptions, and reference numbers Filters results based on your custom criteria Stores the data in a database for easy querying and analysis Setup Instructions This template comes with sticky notes providing step-by-step instructions in Dutch and various query options you can customize. Prerequisites TenderNed API Access - Register at TenderNed for API credentials Configuration Steps Set up TenderNed credentials: Add HTTP Basic Auth credentials with your TenderNed API username and password Apply these credentials to the three HTTP Request nodes: "Tenderned Publicaties" "Haal XML Details" "Haal JSON Details" Customize filters: Modify the "Filter op ..." node to match your specific requirements Examples: specific organizations, contract values, regions, etc. How It Works Step 1: Trigger The workflow can be triggered either manually for testing or automatically on a daily schedule. Step 2: Fetch Publications Makes an API call to TenderNed to retrieve a list of recent publications (up to 100 per request). Step 3: Process & Split Extracts the tender array from the response and splits it into individual items for processing. Step 4: Fetch Details For each tender, the workflow makes two parallel API calls: XML endpoint - Retrieves the complete tender documentation in XML format JSON endpoint - Fetches metadata including reference numbers and keywords Step 5: Parse & Merge Parses the XML data and merges it with the JSON metadata and batch information into a single data structure. Step 6: Extract Fields Maps the raw API data to clean, structured fields including: Publication ID and date Organization name Tender title and description Reference numbers (kenmerk, TED number) Step 7: Filter Applies your custom filter criteria to focus on relevant tenders only. Step 8: Store Inserts the processed data into your database for storage and future analysis. Customization Tips Modify API Parameters In the "Tenderned Publicaties" node, you can adjust: offset: Starting position for pagination size: Number of results per request (max 100) Add query parameters for date ranges, status filters, etc. Add More Fields Extend the "Splits Alle Velden" node to extract additional fields from the XML/JSON data, such as: Contract value estimates Deadline dates CPV codes (procurement classification) Contact information Integrate Notifications Add a Slack, Email, or Discord node after the filter to get notified about new matching tenders. Incremental Updates Modify the workflow to only fetch new tenders by: Storing the last execution timestamp Adding date filters to the API query Only processing publications newer than the last run Troubleshooting No data returned? Verify your TenderNed API credentials are correct Check that you have setup youre filter proper Need help setting this up or interested in a complete tender analysis solution?
