Official n8n community node for Minds, the synthetic market research platform. It lets a workflow create and inspect Panels, prepare a reviewable research plan, and retrieve durable results through the Minds API.
This repository is the canonical public source. The package is not available in n8n Cloud until it is published to npm and accepted through n8n's Creator Portal.
The first release exposes five bounded operations for the Panel resource:
| Operation | Effect |
|---|---|
| Get Many | Lists Panels available to the authenticated Minds account. |
| Create | Creates a Panel and optionally attaches existing Group IDs. |
| Get | Retrieves one Panel, its Groups, Minds, and messages. |
| Preview Research Plan | Creates or revises a saved plan draft without starting research. |
| Get Summary | Retrieves the persisted whole-study summary and semantic output blocks. |
The node intentionally does not delete data or execute a study. Starting consequential research remains a separate, explicit human-confirmed step in Minds.
- Create a Minds account.
- Confirm that your plan includes API access on the pricing page.
- Create an API key under Settings, API Keys.
- In n8n, create a Minds API credential and paste the key into API Key.
n8n encrypts the credential at rest. The node sends it only as a Bearer credential to https://getminds.ai/api/v1/. It never reads environment variables, files, or unrelated services.
- Use Panel, Create to create a Panel from existing Group IDs.
- Use Panel, Preview Research Plan with the new Panel ID and a research request.
- Review the returned draft, questions, source, and confirmation requirements in Minds.
- After a human starts the approved study in Minds, use Panel, Get to check progress.
- Use Panel, Get Summary when the study is complete.
Node.js 22 or later is required.

Minds provides early, directional synthetic research. It does not replace representative human fieldwork for high-stakes decisions. Review disagreement, limitations, and evidence before acting on a result.
