Sign Solana transactions and messages inside your n8n workflows — using any of 13 pluggable signing backends powered by @solana/keychain.


Features

Operations

  • Get Wallet Address — return the public key for a configured signer
  • Sign Message — sign arbitrary UTF-8 messages
  • Sign Transaction — sign a base64-encoded Solana transaction (wire format)
  • Send Transaction — sign + broadcast to any Solana RPC endpoint, return tx signature

Backends

Backend Use Case

Fireblocks Fireblocks institutional custody
Coinbase CDP Coinbase Developer Platform wallet
Dfns Dfns MPC wallet
Crossmint Crossmint wallet
Openfort Openfort backend wallet
Para MPC Para MPC wallet
Utila Utila wallet

Installation

Method 1 — n8n UI (Recommended)

  1. Open your n8n instance
  2. Go to Settings → Community Nodes
  3. Click Install
  4. Enter: @orquestradev/n8n-nodes-solana-signer
  5. Click Install and restart n8n when prompted

Requires n8n v0.187.0 or later with community nodes enabled.

Method 2 — Docker Compose (Self-hosted)

This repo ships a ready-to-use docker-compose.yml that bundles n8n with the node pre-installed.

Clone and start:

git clone https://github.com/berkayoztunc/n8n-nodes-solana-signer
cd n8n-nodes-solana-signer

npm install
npm run build

docker compose up -d

n8n is available at http://localhost:5678.

Stop:

docker compose down

Rebuild after updates:

npm run build
docker compose build
docker compose up -d

Data persists in a Docker volume (n8n_data). To wipe it:

docker compose down -v

Method 3 — npm (Self-hosted)

cd ~/.n8n/custom
npm install @orquestradev/n8n-nodes-solana-signer
# Restart n8n

Method 4 — Local Development / Symlink

git clone https://github.com/berkayoztunc/n8n-nodes-solana-signer
cd n8n-nodes-solana-signer
npm install
npm run build

ln -s $(pwd) ~/.n8n/custom/n8n-nodes-solana-signer
# Restart n8n

Operations Reference

Get Wallet Address

Returns the public key (base58) for the configured signer.

Output:

{ "address": "7xKX..." }

Sign Message

Signs a UTF-8 string message.

Input:

  • message — string to sign

Output:

{
  "message": "hello world",
  "signatures": {
    "7xKX...": "<base64-signature>"
  }
}

Sign Transaction

Signs a pre-built Solana transaction without broadcasting.

Input:

  • transaction — base64-encoded wire-format transaction

Output:

{
  "transaction": "<base64-signed-tx>",
  "signatures": {
    "7xKX...": "<base64-signature>"
  }
}

Send Transaction

Signs and broadcasts a transaction to a Solana RPC endpoint.

Input:

  • transaction — base64-encoded wire-format transaction
  • rpcUrl — RPC endpoint (default: https://api.mainnet-beta.solana.com)

Output:

{
  "signature": "<base58-tx-signature>",
  "signatures": { "7xKX...": "<base64-sig>" }
}

Security Notes

  • Private keys and API secrets are stored in n8n's encrypted credential store — never in workflow JSON.
  • For production wallets, prefer a remote signing backend (AWS KMS, GCP KMS, Turnkey, Privy, etc.) over the Memory backend.
  • The Memory backend holds the private key as a non-extractable CryptoKey in memory — it cannot be read back after creation.
  • Never commit private keys or credential values to source control.

Compatibility

Tested against n8n 1.x (minimum 0.187.0, the first release with stable community node support) and Node.js 18/20.

n8n version Status
>=1.0.0 ✅ Tested
0.187.0 – 0.x ✅ Community nodes supported
<0.187.0 ❌ Not supported (no community node API)

Requirements

  • n8n >=0.187.0
  • Node.js >=18
