Creating an App using the API

In addition to creating a Droplet from the n8n 1-Click App using the control panel, you can also use the DigitalOcean API. As an example, to create a 4GB n8n Droplet in the SFO2 region, you can use the following curl command. You need to either save your API access token) to an environment variable or substitute it in the command below.

curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
         -H 'Authorization: Bearer '$TOKEN'' -d \
        '{"name":"choose_a_name","region":"sfo2","size":"s-2vcpu-4gb","image": "automazeme-n8n"}' \
        "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/droplets"

Getting Started After Deploying n8n

Setup

• set up a new A-type DNS entry for a subdomain pointing to your_droplet_public_ipv4. Default subdomain to use is n8n. So if your domain is “mycompany.com”, you would add a new DNS entry for “n8n.mycompany.com”. If your domain is hosted with DigitalOcean, see these instructions for how it’s done. Note: after setting up the subdomain DNS entry, it can take a few minutes before it becomes active.
• connect to your droplet using SSH or by clicking on the “Console” button in the droplet view.
• follow the setup steps in the console.
• connect to your brand new n8n server using the subdomain you created, e.g. “https://n8n.mycompany.com”
