Quick and Straightforward Setup

1. Authentication: Configure API access to your FortiGate appliance
2. Node Configuration: Add HTTP Request nodes in n8n and authenticate
3. Workflow Building: Create automation sequences using n8n's visual workflow editor
4. Testing: Validate workflows in a controlled environment
5. Deployment: Implement production workflows with appropriate monitoring

The integration requires minimal technical expertise, with most workflows deployable in hours rather than days or weeks. Security teams can start with simple use cases and progressively build more sophisticated automation as they become familiar with the capabilities.
