Use API nodes within chains

Make external API calls at any point in your Prompt Chain to integrate with third-party services. The API node lets you validate data, log events, fetch information, or perform any HTTP request without leaving your chain. Simply configure the endpoint, method, and payload to connect your AI workflow with external systems.
