Why n8n teams add DumplingAI
Data built for n8n workflows
Transcribe TikTok content automatically without manual downloads or browser plugins.
Pair transcripts with n8n’s Function, AI, and Code nodes to generate hooks, captions, and summaries instantly.
Store finished transcripts across destinations like Notion, databases, Slack, or vector stores so marketing, enablement, and ops teams can reuse them.
Integration overview
How the n8n + DumplingAI workflow fits together
Use the HTTP Request node to call DumplingAI’s TikTok Transcript endpoint with the video link, then route the structured text through your workflows.
Integration steps
- 1
Add the HTTP Request node
Insert an HTTP Request node after your trigger so you can call DumplingAI inside the workflow.
- 2
Configure the DumplingAI request
Switch the node to POST, attach your Header Auth credential, and define the JSON body in the Body Parameters section. Include the TikTok share link or video ID and optionally request timestamps or a preferred language.
- 3
Distribute the transcript
Send the response into Set, Function, or AI nodes before handing it off to other services. Send the transcript into repurposing flows, content calendars, or analytics dashboards.
