n8n Community Node

The VH3 AI n8n node is verified on n8n — built and maintained by VH3 AI, with the full action list and install steps on n8n’s integration page. The package (n8n-nodes-vh3ai) is also published on npm, free to install, and works on self-hosted n8n, n8n Cloud, or a VH3-managed instance. The node provides a single unified credential type that covers both the BigChange API and the VH3 AI intelligence layer. Every operation is clearly labelled in the dropdown so builders can mix direct FMS operations with intelligence layer calls in the same workflow. The node is marked usableAsTool: true, which means n8n AI agents can call it directly without any additional configuration.

Installation

Recommended: install from the verified VH3 AI node on n8n. Open the integration page, follow n8n’s verified-node setup, then search for VH3 AI in the node panel. Self-hosted n8n (community nodes): go to Settings → Community Nodes, click Install, and enter:

n8n-nodes-vh3ai

Manual / development:

cd n8n-nodes-vh3ai
npm install && npm run build && npm link

mkdir -p ~/.n8n/custom && cd ~/.n8n/custom
npm init -y
npm link n8n-nodes-vh3ai
n8n start

What you can do from a workflow

BigChange operations

Full read/write access to jobs, contacts, engineers, vehicles, worksheets, invoices, quotes, notes, stock, and reference data. List, get, create, edit, cancel, schedule, the complete operational surface.

VH3 AI intelligence

Semantic search, enriched job feed, aggregated metrics, sentinels, reports, briefings, Connie chat, case management, email triage, intelligence profiles, pulse snapshots, and weather context for jobs and sites.

Model-ready compact payloads

Every read operation has a Simplify toggle. When on, the API returns compact payloads: empty values stripped, nested structures flattened, custom fields collapsed. Smaller tokens, lower cost, better agent performance.

AI agent compatible

The node generates a VH3 AI Tool variant automatically. Drop it into any n8n AI agent as a tool and the agent can query jobs, run sentinels, search history, chat with Connie, and more, no extra wiring required.

Credentials

The node uses a single VH3 AI API credential for all operations:

Field	Description	Default
`API Key`	Your VH3 API key	None
`Company ID`	Your tenant ID	None
`Base URL`	VH3 Connect gateway	`https://api.vh3connect.io`
`FSI Base URL`	Intelligence API	`https://api.vh3connect.io/api:kP8T1CK7`

Hosting options

You do not need to run your own n8n infrastructure to use the node. VH3 AI offers managed hosting at {your-company}.n8n.vh3.ai with the node pre-installed, credentials pre-configured, and 100+ workflow templates ready to activate. If you prefer to run your own instance, self-hosted or n8n Cloud, install the community node and point it at your credentials. Either path gives you the same node, the same operations, and the same intelligence layer underneath.

Model	Description

Bring Your Own Instance	Self-hosted or n8n Cloud. Install `n8n-nodes-vh3ai` via Community Nodes and add your credentials.
