Hi, I'm totally new to the tool. Couple of questions:
Can triggers be setup to automate agents, like in n8n?
Can agents send the output of their work to other agents?
Thanks! 🙏
Hello 👋 Welcome!
Can triggers be setup to automate agents, like in n8n?
You can call an agent from n8n/Make/Zapier. There is no auto trigger in Dust directly.
Can agents send the output of their work to other agents?
Yes if you call multiple agent in the same convo or if you chain them in n8n. Not directly from the agent "tools".
As a user here, I can answer some of your questions with my limited experience & Knowledge:
DUST does have N8n integration, so you can use the DUST agents inside of automation tools like N8n & others.
for chaining agents can be done manually by calling multiple agents in the same conversation and i think that the dust team is working on something that would do similar things but automatically like calling different agents i'm not 100% positive on that information though. But there is also the DUST apps that you can do a lot with if you want to go more technical, or the introduction of DUST as an MCP server and client.
Thank you Remi! But if I understood correctly you need a local instance of n8n, correct?
I am not super familiar with n8n. In Make, you can have a workflow hosted on their platform that runs on a regular basis (eg: every day/week). I would think it is the same on n8n 😊
Stéphane Lagresle, hello community member here: You would want to set up the Dust community node on n8n self-hosted like this (not on the cloud version): https://docs.dust.tt/docs/n8n
n8n recently announced community nodes for their cloud version: https://blog.n8n.io/community-nodes-available-on-n8n-cloud/ However, Dust would need to go through the submission process and this could take some time (also not sure if they're working on it), so the most practical approach if you want to use n8n is to use the self-hosted option and install the Dust node.
Thanks everyone!
I've realized that Make.com makes everything much simpler, I think I'll start there!
