# n8n-nodes-aimlapi

This is an n8n community node for [AI/ML API](https://aimlapi.com/?utm_source=n8n&utm_medium=github&utm_campaign=integration) integration.  
It allows you to interact with large language models (LLMs) and multimodal models directly from your n8n workflows.

[n8n](https://n8n.io/) is a [fair-code licensed](https://docs.n8n.io/reference/license/) workflow automation platform.

[AI/ML API](https://aimlapi.com/app/?utm_source=n8n&utm_medium=github&utm_campaign=integration) provides access to **300+ AI models**, including Deepseek, Gemini, ChatGPT, and many others — all with **enterprise-grade rate limits and uptimes**.

## Features

- Chat with any LLM available on AI/ML API
- Dynamic model selection
- Parameter tuning (temperature, max tokens, top-p, penalties)
- Multiple output formats: raw, full response, messages, or plain text
- Credential-based authentication

📚 You can also refer to the [provider documentation](https://docs.aimlapi.com/?utm_source=n8n&utm_medium=github&utm_campaign=integration) for detailed API specs.

### Node Parameters

* **Model**: Select model from the list (e.g. `gpt-3.5-turbo`)
* **Prompt**: User prompt to send to the model
* **Extract From Response**:

  * `Text Only (First Message)` – plain answer string
  * `Assistant Messages` – array of `message` objects
  * `Choices Array` – raw OpenAI-style `choices[]`
  * `Full Raw JSON` – full API response
* **Options**:

  * **Temperature**
  * **Top P**

## Usage Example

1. Add a **Manual Trigger**
2. Add the **AI/ML API** node
3. Configure credentials
4. Set a model (e.g. `gpt-3.5-turbo`)
5. Enter prompt: `What is the capital of France?`
6. Select `Extract: Text Only`
7. Execute — you’ll get `Paris`

---

## Troubleshooting

* If the node doesn't show up, try restarting your instance
* If the icon or name doesn't render, make sure you ran `npm run build && gulp build:icons`
* To debug model list: ensure credentials and `/models` endpoint return valid JSON
