What I need help with:
-
Do I need to configure the Webhook node response format differently for Gemini Agent input/output?
-
Is there a special setting required so the ElevenLabs agent can properly receive/respond via webhook instead of the chat trigger?
-
How should I structure the “Respond to Webhook” node so the AI response passes back correctly to ElevenLabs?
Has anyone successfully connected ElevenLabs agent → n8n (via webhook) → Gemini Agent → back to ElevenLabs?
