Action Network n8n integrationAutomate Action Network with n8n.

Files one person as attending one event, the same record Action Network writes when someone RSVPs on the platform.

• Person ID: the Action Network identifier of the person attending, often {{ $json.id }} passed along from a Create a person step earlier in the run.
• Event ID: the identifier of the event the RSVP belongs to.
• Simplify: on, n8n hands back a trimmed version of the response rather than the raw payload.

Pulls back one RSVP so a workflow can check it before acting on it.

• Event ID: the event whose attendance you want to read, because an RSVP only exists inside an event.
• Attendance ID: the identifier of that specific RSVP.

Lists the RSVPs recorded for a single event, page after page.

• Event ID: the event whose attendance list you are reading.
• Return All: on, n8n follows every page of the list; off, Limit sets how many RSVPs come back.
• Limit: the ceiling applied when Return All stays off, handy while you test on a busy event.

Reads one event and returns its record as Action Network stores it.

• Event ID: the identifier of the event to retrieve, commonly {{ $json.eventId }} when the id travels from a previous node.
• Simplify: keeps the output to the readable fields, which makes the mapping in the next node much shorter.

Walks the event calendar and returns the events it finds. No required field, so it runs as a plain inventory step.

• Return All: on, every page of the calendar comes back; off, the run stops at Limit.
• Limit: the maximum number of events to return in one execution.

Adds a supporter to Action Network. Nothing is strictly required, which means the node can create a bare record and let a later step fill it in.

• Additional Fields: Given Name, Family Name, Status for the subscription state, Language Spoken, Phone Number and Postal Addresses.

Looks up a single supporter and returns what Action Network holds on them.

• Simplify: on, the response drops to its readable form, which is usually enough to feed a message template.

Returns supporters from the list the API key covers, with no required field to fill in.

• Return All: on for a complete export, since the node then chains the pages of the API on its own.
• Limit: the cap that applies while Return All stays off, which is the safe setting for a first test run.
• Simplify: trims each record to its main fields.

Edits an existing supporter record instead of creating a second one for the same human.

• Update Fields: 5 fields you can change, Given Name, Family Name, Language Spoken, Phone Number and Postal Addresses.

Attaches an existing tag to a supporter, which is how segments get built in Action Network.

• Tag Name or ID: pick the tag from the dropdown n8n loads from your account, or pass an id through an expression when the tag is chosen at runtime.
• Person ID: the supporter receiving the tag.

Detaches a tag from a supporter. The operation works on the tagging, the link between the person and the tag, not on the person.

• Tagging Name or ID: the specific tagging to remove, chosen the same way.
