Example Workflows

One-shot task

1. Add a Claudeway node
2. Set Resource to Task, Operation to Run Task
3. Enter your prompt
4. The output includes the result, token usage, and cost

Multi-turn session

1. Claudeway (Start Session) — creates a session, outputs session_id
2. Claudeway (Continue Session) — uses {{ $json.session_id }}, sends first message
3. Claudeway (Continue Session) — continues the conversation
4. Claudeway (Delete) — cleans up when done

Permission approval flow

1. Claudeway (Continue Session) — Claude requests tool permission
2. IF node — checks {{ $json.permission_denials.length > 0 }}
3. Claudeway (Approve Permissions) — approves with tool_use_id values from denials
4. Continues the workflow

Compatibility

• n8n version 1.0.0 or later
