n8n + OrcaRouter

- 2.Paste your OrcaRouter API key (sk-orca-…) into the API Key field.
- 3.Set the Base URL to https://api.orcarouter.ai/v1 and save.
- 4.Add an 'OpenAI Chat Model' node to your workflow, select the credential, and set the model to orcarouter/auto (enter it as a custom value).
- 5.Execute the workflow — every AI step now routes through OrcaRouter.
# In n8n: Credentials → Add credential → 'OpenAI' # 1. API Key: sk-orca-... # 2. Base URL: https://api.orcarouter.ai/v1 # # Then in your workflow: # 3. Add an 'OpenAI Chat Model' node # 4. Credential: the one you just created # 5. Model: orcarouter/auto (typed as a custom value)
Automation workflows run unattended — a 3 a.m. provider outage means silent failures in your pipelines. OrcaRouter's automatic failover keeps scheduled workflows running through a healthy backend, and orcarouter/auto picks the cheapest capable model for each step without you editing a single node.
