Build Your First AI MCP Server
detail.loadingPreview
This n8n workflow empowers you to build your first AI-powered Multi-Channel Publisher (MCP) server. Seamlessly integrate with Google Calendar to automate event creation, updates, and deletions based on AI-driven logic. This template is your starting point for intelligent calendar management.
About This Workflow
This n8n workflow, titled 'Build Your First AI MCP Server,' is designed to be your foundational step into creating sophisticated automated processes. At its core is an AI Agent that interacts with Google Calendar through a series of specialized nodes. The 'Google Calendar MCP' node acts as the trigger for your AI-driven operations, allowing it to process incoming requests. Subsequently, the workflow leverages AI to intelligently perform actions like searching for existing events, creating new ones with AI-generated details, updating event information, or deleting them. The workflow also includes a secondary trigger for execution by other workflows, a switch node for routing based on function calls (e.g., 'uppercase', 'lowercase', 'random_user_data'), and robust Google Calendar integration via OAuth2. This template is perfect for developers and automation enthusiasts looking to harness AI for calendar management.
Key Features
- AI-Powered Calendar Management: Utilize an AI Agent to intelligently manage your Google Calendar events.
- Full CRUD Operations: Create, read (search), update, and delete Google Calendar events with AI assistance.
- Flexible Triggering: Initiate workflows via a dedicated MCP trigger or by execution from another n8n workflow.
- Conditional Logic: Employ a Switch node to route AI requests based on specific function names.
- Secure Google Calendar Integration: Connect securely to your Google Calendar account using OAuth2.
How To Use
- Set up Google Calendar Credentials: Ensure you have connected your Google Calendar account via OAuth2 within n8n.
- Configure the AI Agent: Define the
systemMessagefor your AI Agent to guide its behavior and understanding. - Set up the MCP Trigger: Customize the
pathfor your 'Google Calendar MCP' node (e.g.,/my-calendar). - Define Workflow Logic: Connect the AI Agent to the Google Calendar nodes (
SearchEvent,CreateEvent,UpdateEvent,DeleteEvent). - Map AI Outputs to Node Parameters: Within each Google Calendar node, use
$fromAI()to dynamically populate parameters likeevent_title,event_description,Start,End, andEvent_IDbased on the AI Agent's responses. - Configure Secondary Trigger (Optional): If you intend to trigger this workflow from another, set up the 'When Executed by Another Workflow' node and define its
workflowInputs. - Implement Switch Logic (Optional): Configure the 'Switch' node to route incoming
function_namevalues to different execution paths.
