• You must have a MindStudio account with a published AI Agent.

• You'll need your Agent ID and an API key from the MindStudio Developer Portal.

• Your agent must have Launch Variables setup in the Start Block.

• (optional) Set your Terminator Block to the End behavior to output JSON

Send Body Section

7. Paste the following code into the JSON area

{{
{
    "workerId": "YOUR_AGENT_ID",
    "variables": {
      "LAUNCH_VARAIBLE_1": VALUE_1,
      "LAUNCH_VARAIBLE_2": VALUE_2,
    },
    "workflow": "YOUR_WORKFLOW_NAME.flow"
  }
}}

8. In the JSON, replace the following with your own data:

• YOUR_AGENT_ID - See section above to get your AGENT ID

• LAUNCH_VARIABLES - See section above to learn how to create launch variables

• VALUES - These values will come from your n8n instance. You can clack and drag any input from the left into the JSON area to bring it into your code. When you drag an input in, it should look like this: $json['Value'] . If you are not using inputs from n8n, then make sure to wrap your value in quotation marks like this: "value"

• YOUR_WORKFLOW_NAME - The name of the workflow you want to trigger (Ex: Main.flow)

Test & Debug

Run the workflow manually with sample data. If there’s an error, check the HTTP Response Code and body message. You may also consider using n8n's built in assistant to help debug.

Common issues:

• Invalid API Key → Ensure your key is copied correctly from MindStudio.

• Invalid Agent ID → Only use published Agent IDs.

• Missing variables → Ensure all required launch variables are included.
