This NEW N8N MCP Update is INSANE!

This new N8NMCP update is insane. You can now connect any AI tool to your workflows with literally one click. No code, no complex setup, just pure automation magic. I'm about to show you how to build AI agents that actually work. This is going to change everything for automation. Let's dive in. All right, so N just released something that honestly blew my mind. And I don't say that lightly. I've been using N for years to automate my business. But this new MCP update, it's on a completely different level. Let me explain what just happened. So N8N added something called instance level MCP access. Now, if you don't know what MCP is, don't worry. I'm going to break it down super simple. MCP stands for model context protocol. Think of it like a universal language that AI tools can speak. It's basically like USB for AI. You know how USB works with any device. Same idea here. Before this update, if you wanted AI tools like Claude to run your N8N workflows, you had to set up each workflow individually. It was a pain. You'd spend hours connecting things, configuring triggers, troubleshooting errors. Not fun. But now everything changed. With instance level MCP access, you connect one time, that's it. And suddenly all your workflows become available to any AI tool that supports MCP. Claude can see them. Cursor ID can see them. Lovable can see them. and they can search your workflows, discover what they do, and run them automatically. No individual setup required. Hey, if we haven't met already, I'm the digital avatar of Julian Goldie, CEO of SEO Agency, Goldie Agency. Whilst he's helping clients get more leads and customers, I'm here to help you get the latest AI updates. Julian Goldie reads every comment, so make sure you comment below and let me know what you think. This is absolutely insane when you think about the possibilities because now you can literally talk to Claude and say, "Hey, run my email scraper workflow. " And Claude will just do it. Or you can say, "Find all my workflows related to data analysis. " And Claude will list them all out for you. It's like having a personal assistant who knows exactly how to run your automations. And here's the best part. You're going to see exactly how powerful this is in just a moment because I'm going to show you a live demo. But first, let me tell you why this matters so much. See, most people think automation is complicated. They think you need to be a developer or know how to code. But with this new MCP update, that's completely false. Anyone can do this. Now, you can build AI agents that actually work without writing a single line of code. And I'm going to prove it to you. Now, before I show you the setup, let me explain the two modes you need to know about. There's something called MCP server mode and MCP client mode. Server mode is when you expose a single workflow as a tool. This is what the old MCP trigger node did back in April 2025. It works, but you have to set it up for every single workflow. Client mode is when your AI tool connects to other MCP servers. But here's what makes the new update special. Instance level access is like server mode on steroids. You enable it once at the instance level. Then you just toggle which workflows you want to make available and boom, your AI tools can discover and run all of them. No more per workflow configuration. No more wasted time. This is the game changer. Now, before I show you the setup, I want to mention something quick. If you want to learn how to actually scale your business with AI tools like N810, you need to check out AI profit boardroom. This is where I teach you how to save hours every single week by automating your business with powerful AI workflows. We cover N8 claud strategies and everything you need to build systems that actually work. The link is in the description below. All right, let's get into the setup. Here's how you actually set this up, and I promise you, it's way easier than you think. Step one is to go to your N8N dashboard. Click on settings. You'll see a new option called MCP access. Enable it. You'll need to pick your authentication method. You can use OOTH or a token. I recommend OOTH because it's more secure, but tokens work fine, too, if you want something quick. Once you enable MCP access, you're basically telling N8N, hey, let AI tools connect to me. That's step one. Super simple. Step two is to go to any workflow you want to make available. Click on the workflow settings. You'll see a toggle that says available in MCP. Turn it on. Add a description so [snorts] AI tools know what your workflow does. For example, if you have an email scraper workflow, you'd write something like scrapes emails from a list and saves them to Google Sheets. Clear and simple. Now, here's where it gets really cool. Step three is to open up your AI client. Let's say you're using Claude desktop. Go to the settings in Claude. Add your N8N server URL. Add your authentication details. And that's it. Now Claude can see all your workflows. You can literally ask Claude, "What N8 workflows do I have? " And Claude will list them all out. Then you can say, "Run my email scraper workflow. " And Claude will execute it in real time. This is wild because now

you're not just using AI to chat. You're using AI to actually do things in your business. And this is just the beginning. Let me show you a real example so you can see how powerful this is. Let's say you build a simple workflow in N8N. Maybe it scrapes emails from a website and saves them to Google Sheets. Nothing fancy. You enable MCP on that workflow. Then you open Claude and say find my workflow for scraping emails. Claude searches your NAN instance and finds it. Then you say run it and boom, the workflow executes. Emails get scraped and saved to your sheet. All from a simple conversation with Claude. Now imagine you have 10 workflows or 20 or 50. You can mix and match them however you want. You can build complex AI agents that combine multiple workflows together. For example, let's say you have one workflow that pulls data from an API, another workflow that analyzes that data, and a third workflow that sends you a report. With instance level MCP access, you can tell Claude to run all three in sequence. Claude will handle the entire process for you. This used to take 10 minutes of manual clicking and configuration. Now, it takes 30 seconds. Now, let me talk about some advanced stuff real quick. If you want to get really fancy, you can use MCP with multiple workflows at once. For example, let's say you have an IoT workflow that tracks temperature, sensors, and you have an analytics workflow that processes that data. With instance level MCP, an AI tool can dynamically decide which workflow to run based on the situation. If the temperature goes above a certain level, it runs the alert workflow. If everything's normal, it runs the login workflow. The AI makes a decision in real time. This is next level automation and you don't need to be a developer to build this. You just need N8 and an AI tool that supports MCP. That's it. Now, before we wrap up, let me give you some quick tips. Tip one is to always add clear descriptions to your workflows. The better your descriptions, the easier it is for AI tools to understand what your workflows do. Tip two is to start simple. Don't try to build 50 workflows on day one. Build one or two, test them, make sure they work, then scale up. Tip three is to use the free N8N cloud to get started. You don't need to self-host anything. Just sign up, enable MCP, and start building. The link is in the description. Tip four is if something doesn't work, check your authentication. Most issues come from incorrect or settings. Make sure your OOTH or token is set up correctly. Tip five is you can revoke AI client access anytime. So, if you're worried about security, don't be. you have full control over who can access your workflows. All right, so here's what you need to do next. First, go sign up for NAN if you haven't already. The link is in the description below. Second, upgrade to version 1. 12. 2 or higher. That's the version that supports instance level MCP access. Third, enable MCP in your instance settings. Fourth, pick one workflow to test with. Make it available in MCP and connect it to Claude or another AI tool. Fifth, experiment. See what you can build. The more you play with this, the more ideas you'll get. And trust me, once you see how powerful this is, you're going to want to automate everything. Now, before you go, I want to remind you about AI Profit Boardroom. If you're serious about using AI to save time and scale your business, this is the program you need. We dive deep into tools like N810, Claude, and automation strategies that actually work. You'll learn how to build systems that run on autopilot so you can focus on what matters. Check it out.
