Connect n8n to Cockpilot

n8n works on your team's tasks, projects, contacts and KPIs through Cockpilot's 40 MCP tools, with your rights and never more. A personal token, then a few fields to fill in.

What n8n gets

  • 40 MCP tools. 14 that read and 26 that write, from the day's briefing to the month's KPIs.
  • Your team's work. Its tasks, projects, contacts and KPIs.
  • Your rights, never more. n8n sees and changes what you can, nothing else.

Where the token comes from

  • In Cockpilot, open Connections. Then the n8n row: it creates your token, n8n-<you>.
  • ck_ followed by 43 characters. Copy it right away: it is shown only once.
  • n8n asks for it. Paste it when it does: see the steps.

n8n, step by step

  • 1. In a workflow with an AI Agent, add the MCP Client Tool node.
  • 2. Endpoint: the address. Server Transport: HTTP Streamable.
  • 3. Authentication: Bearer Auth, then a new credential with the token as Bearer Token.
  • 4. Tools to Include: All, or Selected to keep only what the agent needs.
The address
https://your-team.cockpilot.si/mcp
Put in your space's address (your-team).

Good to know

The docs page still shows the first version of the node (SSE Endpoint); Endpoint, Server Transport (HTTP Streamable by default since version 1.2) and Bearer Auth come from the node's source, packages/@n8n/nodes-langchain/nodes/mcp/McpClientTool in the n8n repository.

  • Checked. On October 28, 2026, against the documentation at docs.n8n.io.

Security

  • One token per client. n8n has its own: revoke it from the Security page.
  • Deletions go to the trash. They can be restored for thirty days, and every change is in the journal.
