Summary

Executes the selected Forest Admin action for one or more records in a collection. Select the collection and action, then provide the action’s record IDs and form values using Manual parameters or a JSON object; call the action form operation first to validate the values and confirm the action can execute.

Inputs

  • Authentication and credentials (required) — Choose Bearer Auth or MCP OAuth2 and provide the matching credentials for the Forest MCP endpoint.
  • Collection (required) — Select a collection from the list or enter its ID.
  • Action (required) — Select an action available for the chosen collection or enter its ID.
  • Input Mode and Parameters/JSON (required) — Provide recordIds (an array; use [] for global actions) and values (an object of form field values). Manual mode uses the parameter mapper; JSON mode accepts an object.
  • Options — Set a tool-call timeout in milliseconds (default 60000) and whether image/audio results are converted to binary data (default true).

Output shape

One n8n item per input item, containing action result content and optionally binary data.

Text content is parsed as JSON when possible and otherwise returned as text. Image and audio content become binary fields named data_0, data_1, and so on when Convert to Binary is enabled; otherwise they remain in content. When an item fails and Continue On Fail is enabled, that output item contains an error.message.
