Automate Claude API Calls with Batch Processing
detail.loadingPreview
Streamline your AI interactions with Claude by leveraging n8n for efficient batch prompt submission. This workflow automates sending multiple prompts simultaneously and retrieving their results, saving you time and resources.
About This Workflow
This n8n workflow is designed to dramatically enhance your interaction with the Anthropic Claude API. Instead of sending prompts one by one, this solution enables you to submit requests in batches, significantly improving efficiency and throughput. The workflow triggers upon receiving requests and an anthropic-version, initiates the batch submission to the Anthropic API, and then intelligently polls for the status of the batch. Once processing is complete, it fetches the results, parses the JSONL response, and makes the organized output available for further automation. This is ideal for tasks requiring mass prompt execution, rapid prototyping, or large-scale data generation using Claude.
Key Features
- Batch Prompt Submission: Send multiple prompts to the Anthropic API in a single API call for maximum efficiency.
- Automated Status Checking: The workflow continuously monitors batch processing status until completion.
- Intelligent Result Retrieval: Automatically fetches and parses the results from the batch.
- Customizable Inputs: Easily configure the
anthropic-versionand the array ofrequestsfor tailored AI interactions. - Error Handling Ready: Designed to integrate seamlessly into broader n8n workflows for robust automation.
How To Use
- Trigger Setup: Use the "When Executed by Another Workflow" node as the starting point. This node should receive two primary inputs:
anthropic-version(e.g., "2023-06-01") andrequests(an array of prompt objects). - Submit Batch: Configure the "Submit batch" HTTP Request node to point to
https://api.anthropic.com/v1/messages/batches. Ensure it uses your Anthropic API credentials and correctly formats the JSON body using the incomingrequestsdata. - Conditional Check: The "If ended processing" node checks if the batch
processing_statusis "ended". - Polling Loop (if not ended): If the status is not "ended", the workflow waits using the "Batch Status Poll Interval" node (set to 10 seconds here) and then makes another request to "Check batch status" using the batch ID obtained from the submission.
- Fetch Results (if ended): Once the status is "ended", the "Get results" HTTP Request node fetches the results using the
results_urlprovided in the batch status response. - Parse Results: The "Parse response" code node processes the JSONL formatted results, splitting them by newlines and parsing each individual JSON object into a structured array.
- Output: The final output will be an array of processed results, each linked to its original
custom_id.
