Forest AdminInstall

Summary

Updates an existing record in the selected Forest Admin collection by sending its record ID and field values to the Forest MCP update tool. Choose the collection, provide the required recordId and attributes parameters in Manual or JSON input mode, and select an authentication method; the operation may return text, image, or audio content from the tool response.

Inputs

• Authentication and credentials (required) — Choose Bearer Auth or MCP OAuth2 and provide matching Forest MCP credentials, including the server URL and token.
• Collection (required) — Select a collection from the list or enter its ID.
• Input Mode (required) — Use Manual to map parameters or JSON to provide them as an object. Manual mode exposes recordId (the ID of the record to update) and attributes (an object mapping field names to values); both are required.
• Options — Set the tool-call timeout in milliseconds (default 60000), and choose whether returned images and audio are converted to binary data (default true).

Output shape

One n8n item per input item, paired with its input; each item's JSON contains a content field when the tool returns non-binary content, and may include binary data.

Text content is parsed as JSON when possible and otherwise kept as text. By default, image and audio content is converted into binary properties named data_0, data_1, and so on; with Convert to Binary disabled, it remains in content as encoded content. With Continue On Fail enabled, an item error is returned in `json.error.message.
