n8n-nodes-l402-request

This is an n8n community node for L402 endpoints. Lets you make L402 requests using Nostr Wallet Connect.

L402, formerly known as LSAT, is a standard to support the use case of charging for services and authenticating users in distributed networks. It combines the strengths of Macaroons for better authentication with the strengths of the Lightning Network for better payments.

n8n is a fair-code licensed workflow automation platform.

How to install

Community Nodes (Recommended)

• Go to Settings > Community Nodes.
• Select Install.
• Enter @getalby/n8n-nodes-l402-request in Enter npm Package Name.
• Agree to the risks of using community nodes: select I understand the risks of installing unverified code from a public source.
• Select Install.

After installing the node, you can use it like any other node. n8n displays the node in search results in the Nodes panel.

Manual installation

To get started install the package in your n8n root directory:
