Custom node in n8n that acts both as a trigger and processes data

Questions

Is it possible to create a custom node in n8n that acts both as a trigger and processes data, then sends it to another endpoint, all within the same node without the need for additional nodes?

It looks like your topic is missing some important information. Could you provide the following if applicable.

  • n8n version:
  • Database (default: SQLite):
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app):
  • Operating system:

Hey @Kawther_Bensalem,

The quick answer to this is yes but it depends on what you actually want, Your trigger node can do extra processing but it is normally better to have 1 trigger node and one processing node so you can process the data from other triggers or nodes if needed.

Hi thanks for your answer,
idea is that I want to create node to receive platform data and process it then send it to other endpoints
practically the node will play the role of node(code,Http,webhook)
