Description

n8n-nodes-exayard

n8n community node for Exayard — AI-powered construction takeoffs, estimates, and bids.

Install

In your n8n instance:

npm install n8n-nodes-exayard

Restart n8n. The package ships two nodes (Exayard and Exayard Trigger) and one credential type (Exayard API).

Authentication

1. Sign in to Exayard and open Settings → Developer at https://app.exayard.com/settings/developer to create an API key. Scope it to read or write per resource — least-privilege keys keep workflows safe.
2. In n8n, Credentials → New → Exayard API and paste the key, then hit Test. The default base URL (https://api.exayard.com/v1) is correct for production.
3. Organization ID is optional everywhere — leave the field blank and the node derives the organization from the API key automatically.

Exayard Trigger

Subscribes to Exayard lifecycle events and emits a workflow run per delivery. Supported events:

• project.{created,updated,archived}
• assessment.{started,completed,approved,cancelled,failed}
• estimate.generated
• bid.generated
• file.processed
• quote.{requested,received,accepted,rejected,expired}
• * (all events)

Use as an AI Agent tool

The Exayard node is marked usableAsTool, so an n8n AI Agent can call it directly: add the AI Agent node, click the Tool connector, and pick Exayard. The agent can then list projects, run takeoffs, generate estimates, and more from natural-language instructions.

Self-hosted instances must allow community nodes as tools by setting the environment variable N8NCOMMUNITYPACKAGESALLOWTOOL_USAGE=true.

Activating the trigger registers a webhook endpoint at Exayard pointing at the n8n production URL. Deactivating it deletes the endpoint so you do not leak orphan subscriptions. Signatures are verified per-delivery (HMAC-SHA256, 5-minute timestamp window).
