​
Overview

Connect n8n to your Minoa workspace to build automated workflows powered by your sales data. n8n acts as a bridge between Minoa and hundreds of other tools.

​
What you can do

​
Before you start

  • An n8n Cloud account, or a self-hosted instance
  • A Minoa account

​
Connect Minoa

​
Step 1: Create an MCP OAuth credential

  1. In n8n, go to Credentials → Add Credential
  2. Search for MCP OAuth2 API
  3. Configure the credential:
Make sure Authentication is set to Body, not Header. The token exchange will fail otherwise.
  1. Click Save, then Connect my account
  2. Sign in to Minoa and authorize access

​
Step 2: Use Minoa in workflows

  1. Create a new workflow with your preferred trigger
  2. Add an MCP Client node
  3. Select your Minoa MCP credential
  4. Choose a tool, for example minoa_list_business_cases or minoa_get_pipeline_analytics
  5. Connect it to other n8n nodes as needed

​
Commonly used tools

These are the tools most workflows reach for. Your MCP Client node lists everything available to your account. For the complete set, including the build, publish, and export capabilities, see the Minoa MCP Server page.

​
Manage access

The credential authenticates as one Minoa user, and your workflow inherits that user’s role. It can read and change exactly what that person can in the web app, and nothing else. Admin-only actions, such as editing the value framework, are refused for everyone else.
A workflow runs unattended under whoever’s credential it holds, so connect it with a non-admin account unless the workflow genuinely needs admin reach. Everything it does is logged under that user.
To revoke access, delete the MCP OAuth credential in n8n. See Permissions and governance for the full role breakdown.

​
Troubleshooting

Dynamic client registration failed, because n8n looks for discovery endpoints at the root domain.Turn off Use Dynamic Client Registration and enter the Authorization URL and Access Token URL by hand.
n8n is sending client_id in the HTTP header instead of the request body.In the credential settings, set Authentication to Body rather than Header.
