Get Articles from Hacker News

This n8n workflow demonstrates how to fetch articles from Hacker News using the built-in Hacker News node. It provides a basic setup to get started with retrieving data from the popular tech news aggregator.

What it does

  1. Starts the workflow: The workflow is initiated manually or by a configured trigger (though none is explicitly configured in this basic example).
  2. Fetches Hacker News articles: The Hacker News node is used to retrieve articles. By default, it likely fetches the latest or top articles, depending on its internal configuration.

Prerequisites/Requirements

  • An n8n instance (cloud or self-hosted)

Setup/Usage

  1. Import the workflow:
    • Copy the JSON code provided for this workflow.
    • In your n8n instance, go to "Workflows" and click "New".
    • Click the three dots menu (...) in the top right corner and select "Import from JSON".
    • Paste the copied JSON and click "Import".
  2. Activate the workflow:
    • Once imported, ensure the workflow is active by toggling the "Active" switch in the top right corner of the workflow editor.
  3. Execute the workflow:
    • You can run the workflow manually by clicking "Execute Workflow" in the editor to see the output from the Hacker News node.
    • To use it in a real-world scenario, you would typically connect the "Start" node to a scheduled trigger (e.g., a Cron node) or an external webhook.
