-
Your Elasticsearch application's Base URL (also known as the Elasticsearch application endpoint):
- In Elasticsearch, select the option to Manage this deployment.
- In the Applications section, copy the endpoint of the Elasticsearch application.
- Add this in n8n as the Base URL.
-
Ignore SSL Issues: When turned on, n8n will connect even if SSL certificate validation fails.
Custom endpoint aliases
If you add a custom endpoint alias to a deployment, update your n8n credential Base URL with the new endpoint.
