Hudu AI Tools Node

The Hudu AI Tools node connects to n8n's AI Agent and exposes Hudu operations as individual structured tools that an LLM can invoke directly.

How it works

  1. Add a Hudu AI Tools node to your workflow
  2. Connect it to an AI Agent node via the Tools connector
  3. Select a Resource and the Operations to expose
  4. Optionally enable Allow Write Operations to permit create / update / delete / archive

The AI Agent receives one named tool per operation (e.g. hudu_companies_getAll, hudu_assets_create) and can call them autonomously based on the user's request. The get operation is exposed as getById (e.g. hudu_companies_getById) so the LLM clearly understands a numeric ID is required.

Supported resources

Resource Operations
Activity Logs getAll
Articles get, getAll, create, update, delete, archive, unarchive
Asset Layouts get, getAll
Asset Passwords get, getAll, create, update, delete, archive, unarchive
Assets get, getAll, create, update, delete, archive, unarchive
Companies get, getAll, create, update, delete, archive, unarchive
Expirations get, getAll, create, update, delete
Folders get, getAll, create, update, delete
Groups get, getAll
IP Addresses get, getAll, create, update, delete
Matchers getAll
Networks get, getAll, create, update, delete, archive, unarchive
Procedures get, getAll, create, update, delete, archive, unarchive
Relations getAll, create, delete
Users get, getAll
VLANs get, getAll, create, update, delete
VLAN Zones get, getAll, create, update, delete
Websites get, getAll, create, update, delete, archive, unarchive

Notes

  • Read-only by default: write operations (create, update, delete, archive, unarchive) are hidden until Allow Write Operations is enabled
  • Error handling: all errors are returned as structured JSON with an error, errorType, and nextAction field so the LLM can self-correct without crashing the workflow
  • Assets: require company_id for create/update/delete/archive because Hudu's API routes asset mutations through the company endpoint
  • Matchers: getAll requires an integration_id parameter
  • Websites: the name field is the monitored URL and must include the protocol — e.g. https://example.com, not a display name
  • n8n version compatibility: works with n8n 2.9+ (ToolsAgent V3) and all earlier n8n versions
