This guide shows how to connect N8N to the NodeMaven API with an HTTP Request node. For the endpoints themselves, see the Proxy API overview.

Step 5: Configure the request

Configure the HTTP Request node as follows:
  • Method: GET
  • URL: https://api.nodemaven.com/api/v2/base/locations/countries/
The URL above is an example that retrieves a list of countries. You can check the full API URLs in the NodeMaven API documentation, where you will also find other functions: Then enable the header toggle switch and add these two headers:

​
Step 6: Execute the request

Click Execute Step. You should see a list of all available countries, which confirms your N8N setup is complete and successfully connected to the API.
