n8n setup

Use Asterionyx inside n8n workflows through an OpenAI credential with a custom Base URL.

This page describes how to point n8n at Asterionyx’s Chat Completions endpoint. It is a setup guide, not a partnership or endorsement.

Before you startYou need an Asterionyx account, a customer API key, the Base URL, a published Model ID from the live catalog, and enough Credits for a test request.

n8n credential fields

Use the OpenAI credential with a custom Base URL, then type a published Model ID in the Chat Model sub-node. A clean n8n install was not run in this environment.

n8n fields
Credential type: OpenAI
Base URL: https://api.a.eus/v1
API Key: ${ASTERIONYX_API_KEY}
Node: OpenAI Chat Model
Model: <MODEL_ID_FROM_CATALOG>
  1. Create an OpenAI credential

    In n8n, open Credentials → Add credential and choose the OpenAI type.

  2. Point it at Asterionyx

    Set the credential’s Base URL to the Asterionyx Base URL shown below, and paste your Asterionyx API key.

  3. Add a model node

    In your workflow, add an AI Agent or Basic LLM Chain node with an OpenAI Chat Model sub-node, and select the credential you created.

  4. Type the Model ID

    In the Model field, type a published ID copied from the live Model Catalog.

  5. Run it once to test

    Execute the node — a successful reply confirms the connection, and the call appears in your Asterionyx usage history.

Tipn8n validates credentials lazily — if the node errors, re-check the Base URL ends in /v1 and the Model ID is typed exactly.

Troubleshooting

401 / unauthorized

Recopy the API key from the portal. Do not use a placeholder or a key from another account.

402 / insufficient Credits

Create a recharge in the portal. The same API key and Base URL continue to work after Credits are added.

Unknown model

Copy a published public model ID from the live Model Catalog instead of typing a remembered name.
