Airtable

What it does

Bearer Token Validation This n8n template helps you manage and validate tokens easily using: - n8n as your backend workflow engine - Airtable as your lightweight token store --- 🚀 What It Does - Stores user tokens securely in Airtable with expiry or usage metadata. - Validates incoming tokens in your workflows (e.g., webhook APIs). - Rejects invalid or expired tokens automatically for security. - Can be extended to generate, rotate, or revoke tokens for user management. --- How It Works 1. Webhook node receives requests with a Bearer header. 2. Airtable Query looks up the provided token. 3. Validation Logic (Code node): - Checks if the token exists. - Verifies expiry or usage limits if configured. 4. Returns success if valid, or error if error with describing the issue. --- - Note: This is the simplest way to do auth, just for simplification --- Why Use This - No need for a full backend to manage secure token validation. - Clean, modular, and ready for your SaaS workflows. --- Enjoy building secure automations with n8n + Airtable! 🚀 Built by: Nazmy
