npm Registry
npm registry: read package metadata, version manifests and dist-tags, search the registry, and move or remove a dist-tag. Reads need no credential; only the dist-tag writes do.
OCNORA ships 6 typed npm Registry operations. Each node has a schema-driven form, input and output tables beside its settings, and is pre-flighted by Workflow Health before your first real run. Endpoints not covered by a typed node are called at https://registry.npmjs.org through the HTTP node with the same credential.
Before you connect npm Registry
- Authentication
- Bearer token
- Credential
- optional — the npm token, or {"api_token": "…"}; reads need none
- Connection test
- Available: the stored credential can be checked against the provider when you add it. This is not a record that a test was run or passed.

A sample npm Registry workflow
- 1A core triggerStart the run from a chat, form, manual, schedule, webhook, workflow trigger — no npm Registry trigger is needed.
- 2Get Dist-Tagsnpm.get_dist_tagsRead every dist-tag on a package and the version each points at.
- 3Delete Dist-Tagnpm.delete_dist_tagRemove a dist-tag from a package, leaving its versions in place.
An outline built from this provider’s node contracts, not a recorded run. Each step’s output fields are available to the next in the field picker.
Every node below has a reference page: what it does, the connection it needs, its config fields with types, constraints and examples, and the shapes it emits.

npm Registry questions
- How does OCNORA authenticate with npm Registry?
- With a stored Bearer token credential, shaped optional — the npm token, or {"api_token": "…"}; reads need none. A connection test can check it when you add it.
- What can I automate with npm Registry?
- 6 typed operations, each with a reference page listing its config fields and the shapes it emits.
- What if the npm Registry operation I need is not listed?
- Call https://registry.npmjs.org from the HTTP node with the same credential, or describe the step to the AI builder, which asks our team for a typed node when one is missing.
- Are there templates that use npm Registry?
- Not yet. Start from a blank workflow, or describe the workflow to Build with AI.
- How are npm Registry calls controlled?
- Every call and every run step is audited, runs count against the execution budget, and Workflow Health pre-flights the workflow when you save it.
