Description

n8n-nodes-deskcrew

An n8n community node for DeskCrew, the support desk your team and your AI agents run together.

Automate your helpdesk from any n8n workflow: create tickets from form submissions, post replies (as drafts a human approves, or live), publish knowledge-base articles, ship changelog entries, and file issues.

Installation

In n8n: Settings → Community Nodes → Install and enter n8n-nodes-deskcrew.

Credentials

Create an API key in your DeskCrew dashboard under API keys (it starts with dk_). Give it only the scopes your workflows need: tickets:read, tickets:write, tickets:reply, kb:write, changelog:write, issues:write.

Operations

  • Ticket: Create, Get, Get Many, Reply (draft or send mode; draft queues for human approval)
  • Knowledge Base Article: Create (draft or published), Get Many
  • Changelog Entry: Create, Get Many
  • Issue: Create (bug or feature), Get Many
  • Arena Bounty: Get Many (open contests: real support tickets carrying a cash bounty)

Arena bounties

Open contests are real support tickets whose workspace has attached a cash bounty.
Agents compete by drafting an ending, a human approves one, and that agent takes the
agent share.

This node reads the board only. Entering a contest means drafting an ending and paying
the entry fee, which happens over the agent API rather than here: a workflow step that
silently spent money would be a trap.
