How to connect Discourse and Lighthouse
- Step 1: Create a new workflow
- Step 2: Add and configure nodes
- Step 3: Connect
- Step 4: Customize and extend your integration
- Step 5: Test and activate your workflow
Step 1: Create a new workflow and add the first step
In n8n, click the "Add workflow" button in the Workflows tab to create a new workflow. Add the starting point – a trigger on when your workflow should run: an app event, a schedule, a webhook call, another workflow, an AI chat, or a manual trigger. Sometimes, the HTTP Request node might already serve as your starting point.
Step 2: Add and configure Discourse and Lighthouse nodes (using the HTTP Request node)
You can find the Discourse node in the nodes panel and drag it onto your workflow canvas. To add the Lighthouse app to the workflow select the HTTP Request node and use the generic authentication method to make custom API calls to Lighthouse. Configure Lighthouse and Discourse one by one: input data on the left, parameters in the middle, and output data on the right.
Step 3: Connect Discourse and Lighthouse
A connection establishes a link between Discourse and Lighthouse (or vice versa) to route data through the workflow. Data flows from the output of one node to the input of another. You can have single or multiple connections for each node.
Step 4: Customize and extend your Discourse and Lighthouse integration
Use n8n's core nodes such as If, Split Out, Merge, and others to transform and manipulate data. Write custom JavaScript or Python in the Code node and run it as a step in your workflow. Connect Discourse and Lighthouse with any of n8n’s 1000+ integrations, and incorporate advanced AI logic into your workflows.
Step 5: Test and activate your Discourse and Lighthouse workflow
Save and run the workflow to see if everything works as expected. Based on your configuration, data should flow from Discourse to Lighthouse or vice versa. Easily debug your workflow: you can check past executions to isolate and fix the mistake. Once you've tested everything, make sure to save your workflow and activate it.
Build your own Discourse and Lighthouse integration
Create custom Discourse and Lighthouse workflows by choosing triggers and actions. Nodes come with global operations and settings, as well as app-specific parameters that can be configured. You can also use the HTTP Request node to query data from any app or service with a REST API.
Supported methods for Lighthouse
Requires additional credentials set up
Use n8n’s HTTP Request node with a predefined or generic credential type to make custom API calls.
