How to generate documents with AI in n8n

​

Steps

​

With an AI Agent (the agent decides the document)

1. Add an AI Agent node and, on its Tool input, an MCP Client Tool node.
2. Endpoint: https://api.eu.doconda.com/mcp.
3. Server Transport: HTTP Streamable.
4. Authentication: Bearer Auth, with a new credential where you paste your API key (without “Bearer”).
5. Tools to Include: All, or only the ones you want (for example create_document).

​

With an HTTP Request (always the same document with workflow data)

1. Add an HTTP Request node: Method POST, URL https://api.eu.doconda.com/v1/documents.
2. Authentication: Bearer Auth with your API key.
3. Body (JSON), with n8n expressions to insert the workflow data:

{
  "format": "docx",
  "content": { "markdown": "# Hello {{ $json.name }}\n\nThanks for your order {{ $json.order }}." }
}

​

What you get back

{
  "id": "doc_01JAB3H8K2M7V6X5T1R0NPQ4ZW",
  "object": "document",
  "status": "ready",
  "pages": 1,
  "outputs": [
    { "kind": "docx", "url": "https://…", "expires_at": "…" },
    { "kind": "pdf", "url": "https://…", "expires_at": "…" }
  ]
}

• outputs: the file and its PDF. Links expire after 5 minutes; get fresh ones with GET /v1/documents/{id}/outputs. To attach it to an email, download it in the next node with another HTTP Request to that url.
• status: ready, ready_with_warnings, needs_review or failed (not charged).
