Why n8n teams add DumplingAI

Data built for n8n workflows

Build geo-targeted prospect lists directly within your workflows.

Enrich each place with n8n’s Function, AI, and Code nodes to tag services, sentiment, or follow-up actions.

Push structured place data into destinations like Notion, databases, Slack, or vector stores to refresh outreach or operations dashboards.

Integration overview

How the n8n + DumplingAI workflow fits together

Use the HTTP Request node to hit DumplingAI’s Google Places endpoint with your query, location bias, and filters, then stream the results through your workflows.

Integration steps

  1. 1

    Add the HTTP Request node

    Insert an HTTP Request node after your trigger so you can call DumplingAI inside the workflow.

  2. 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. Provide a keyword, optional location bias or coordinates, and choose how many pages of places you need.

  3. 3

    Route the place insights

    Send the response into Set, Function, or AI nodes before handing it off to other services. Send names, ratings, and phone numbers into CRMs, spreadsheets, or notifications for your team.
