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
π 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
-
Webhook node receives requests with a
Bearer
header.
-
Airtable Query looks up the provided token.
-
Validation Logic (Code node):
- Checks if the token exists.
- Verifies expiry or usage limits if configured.
- 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.
