CrowdStrike credentials

You can use these credentials to authenticate when using the HTTP Request node to make a Custom API call.

Prerequisites

Create a CrowdStrike account.

Authentication methods

  • OAuth2

Using OAuth2

To configure this credential, you’ll need:

  • The URL of your CrowdStrike instance

  • A Client ID: Generated by creating a new API Client in Crowdstrike in Support > API Clients and Keys.

  • A Client Secret: Generated by creating a new API Client in Crowdstrike in Support > API Clients and Keys.

When setting up your API client, grant it the usermgmt:read scope. n8n relies on this to test that the credential is working.

A broad outline of the appropriate steps is available publicly at the CrowdStrike blog: Getting Access to the CrowdStrike API. CrowdStrike’s full documentation is behind a log in, so you must log in to your account to access the full API documentation.
