SQL AI Agent Node

Ever wondered how you can chat with your database like it’s your best friend? Well, buckle up because the SQL AI Agent node in n8n is here to make that dream a reality! Imagine asking your database questions in plain English, and voila, it spits out the answers you need. Sounds too good to be true? It’s not. Let’s dive into how this game-changing tool can revolutionize the way you interact with your SQL databases.

What is the SQL AI Agent Node?

The SQL AI Agent node in n8n is your new best friend for interacting with SQL databases. It’s not just a tool; it’s a revolution. This node takes your natural language queries, converts them into SQL, executes them, and then presents the results in a way that even your grandma could understand. No more wrestling with complex SQL syntax; just ask your question, and let the node do the heavy lifting.

Here’s the deal: The SQL Agent uses a SQL database as its data source. Whether you’re working with MySQL, SQLite, or Postgres, this node has got you covered. It’s like having a personal assistant that speaks SQL fluently and can translate your everyday questions into database queries.

Configuring Your SQL AI Agent Node

Setting up the SQL AI Agent node is easier than you think. Let’s break it down:

• Choose Your Database: First off, pick the database you want to use. Options include MySQL, SQLite, and Postgres. Depending on your choice, you’ll need to set up the right credentials.
• For MySQL: Select the Credential for MySQL. Simple as that.
• For SQLite: Add a node before the Agent to read your SQLite file, and enter the Input Binary Field name.
• For Postgres: Select the Credential for Postgres. Note that Postgres and MySQL Agents don’t support the credential tunnel options, so keep that in mind.

Now, let’s talk about how you want the node to construct the prompt. You’ve got two options: take it from the previous node automatically, or define it below. It’s all about making your workflow as smooth as butter.

Refining Your SQL AI Agent Node

Want to fine-tune your SQL AI Agent node? Here’s how you can do it:

• Ignored Tables: Enter a comma-separated list of tables you want to ignore in the IGNORED TABLES field.
• Sample Rows: Specify the number of sample rows to include in the prompt to the agent.
• Included Tables: Enter a comma-separated list of tables you want to include in the INCLUDED TABLES field.
• Prefix Prompt: Add a message in the PREFIX PROMPT field to send to the agent before the Prompt text.
• Suffix Prompt: Add a message in the SUFFIX PROMPT field to send to the agent after the Prompt text.
• Limit: Enter the maximum number of results you want to return in the LIMIT field.

These options let you tailor the node’s behavior to your specific needs, making it a powerful tool in your arsenal.
