n8n
The ValidationCheck community node adds two nodes to n8n:
- ValidationCheck: Validate Email, Validate Phone, Get Number Type, Look Up IP, Get Domain Age, Check Email DNS Auth, Combined Risk Check, Get Account. It also works as a tool for n8n’s AI Agent.
- ValidationCheck Trigger: starts a workflow on
credits.low,credits.depleted, orcredits.added. It registers its own webhook when the workflow is activated, removes it when deactivated, and checks every request’s signature.
Install
Section titled “Install”In n8n, open Settings → Community Nodes → Install and enter n8n-nodes-validationcheck. (Self-hosted: npm install n8n-nodes-validationcheck in your n8n folder.)
Connect
Section titled “Connect”Create a ValidationCheck API credential with an API key from API keys in the dashboard. Use a vc_test_… key while building: answers are free and predictable (test mode). The trigger needs the key’s Manage webhook endpoints permission, which new keys have.
- Simplify (on by default) returns flat fields like
action,status,risk_score, andcredits_used, which are easy to use in IF and spreadsheet nodes. Turn it off for the full response. - Branch on
action:approve,verify,review, orblock. - Repeats within 7 days are free; use Bypass Cache only when you need a fresh answer.
- Turn on Continue On Fail for big lists, so one bad input doesn’t stop the run.
