ZenQuotes Random Quote

The ZenQuotes API is free and anonymous. This minimal graph shows a typical HTTP → Output path you can extend with LLM commentary or Slack.

What this workflow does

  1. Input optional note (ignored by default curl — swap URL to use $input.text elsewhere)
  2. HTTP GET /api/random
  3. Output exposes q (quote text) and a (author) from the JSON array

Notes

No credentials are embedded. ZenQuotes returns a JSON array — access the first element with $QuoteApi.body[0].q and $QuoteApi.body[0].a in downstream nodes. Respect upstream rate limits for production traffic (5 req/30 s without a key).
