Using API key

To configure this credential, you'll need a Zep server (opens in a new tab) with at least one project and:

  • An API URL
  • An API Key

Setup depends on whether you're using Zep Cloud or self-hosted Zep Open Source.

Zep Cloud setup

Follow these instructions if you're using Zep Cloud (opens in a new tab):

  1. In Zep, open the Project Settings.
  2. In the Project Keys section, select Add Key.
  3. Enter a Key Name, like n8n integration.
  4. Select Create.
  5. Copy the key and enter it in your n8n integration as the API Key.
  6. Turn on the Cloud toggle.

Self-hosted Zep Open Source setup

⚠️

Deprecated: The Zep team deprecated the open source Zep Community Edition (opens in a new tab) in April, 2025. These instructions may not work in the future.

Follow these instructions if you're self-hosting Zep Open Source:

  1. Enter the JWT token for your Zep server as the API Key in n8n.
  2. Make sure the Cloud toggle is off.
  3. Enter the URL for your Zep server as the API URL.
