This workflow is designed for e-commerce store owners, operations managers, and developers who use Shopify as their e-commerce platform and want an automated way to track and analyze their order data. It is particularly useful for businesses that: Need a centralized view of all Shopify orders Want to analyze order trends without logging into Shopify Need to share order data with team members who don't have Shopify access Want to build custom reports based on order information What Problem Is This Workflow Solving? While Shopify provides excellent order management within its platform, many businesses need their order data available in other systems for various purposes: Data accessibility**: Not everyone in your organization may have access to Shopify's admin interface Custom reporting**: Google Sheets allows for flexible analysis and report creation Data integration**: Having orders in Google Sheets makes it easier to combine with other business data Backup**: Creates an additional backup of your critical order information What This Workflow Does This n8n workflow creates an automated bridge between your Shopify store and Google Sheets: Listens for new order notifications from your Shopify store via webhooks Processes the incoming order data and transforms it into a structured format Stores each new order in a dedicated Google Sheets spreadsheet Sends real-time notifications to Telegram when new orders are received or errors occur Setup Create a Google Sheet Create a new Google Sheet to store your orders Add a sheet named "orders" with the following columns: orderId orderNumber created_at processed processed_at json customer shippingAddress lineItems totalPrice currency Set Up Telegram Bot Create a Telegram bot using BotFather (send /newbot to @BotFather) Save your bot token for use in n8n credentials Start a chat with your bot and get your chat ID (you can use @userinfobot) Configure the Workflow Set your Google Sheet ID in the "Edit Variables" node Enter your Telegram chat ID in the "Edit Variables" node Set up your Telegram API credentials in n8n Configure Shopify Webhook In your Shopify admin, go to: Settings > Notifications > Webhooks Create a new webhook for "Order creation" Set the URL to your n8n webhook URL (from the "Receive New Shopify Order" node) Set the format to JSON How to Customize This Workflow to Your Needs Additional data**: Modify the "Transform Order Data to Standard Format" function to extract more Shopify data Multiple sheets**: Duplicate the Google Sheets node to store different aspects of orders in separate sheets Telegram messages**: Customize the text in Telegram nodes to include more details or rich formatting Data processing**: Add nodes to perform calculations or transformations on order data Additional notifications**: Add more channels like Slack, Discord, or SMS Integrations**: Extend the workflow to send order data to other systems like CRMs, ERPs, or accounting software Final Notes This workflow serves as a foundation that you can build upon to create a comprehensive order management system tailored to your specific business needs.

Who is this for? NVD (National Vulnerability Database) data is essential for security analysts, vulnerability managers, and DevSecOps professionals who need to perform both CVE lookups and monitor historical change logs. This workflow helps streamline those efforts by providing structured outputs for audit, triage, or compliance tracking purposes. 📝 Note: While this example uses Google Sheets as the destination, you can easily modify the final destination node (e.g., send to Slack, email, database, etc.) based on your specific automation needs.? What problem is this solving? Security teams often manually look up CVE data and track changes across multiple tools. This process is inefficient and error-prone. This workflow automates the CVE lookup and historical change tracking by logging enriched vulnerability data into Google Sheets in real-time. What this workflow does This workflow is designed for CVE API lookup and change history tracking. In many vulnerability automation pipelines, it is essential to determine not only the metadata of a CVE but also how it has evolved over time. Based on the operational need—whether it's enrichment, risk scoring, or remediation validation—this workflow becomes particularly handy in surfacing both current and historical CVE data. This template performs the following actions: Accepts incoming webhook requests containing a CVE ID Queries the NVD CVE Lookup API to fetch vulnerability metadata Queries the NVD CVE History API to retrieve all historical changes Flattens both datasets into a sheet-compatible structure Appends vulnerability metadata to one sheet and change history to another within the same Google Spreadsheet Setup 🔑 Request an NVD API Key To request an NVD API Key, please provide your organization name, a valid email address, and indicate your organization type at NVD API Key Request. You must scroll to the end of the Terms of Use Agreement and check "I agree to the Terms of Use" to obtain an API Key. After submission, you will receive a single-use hyperlink via email to activate and view your API Key. If not activated within seven days, a new request must be submitted. 📊 API Rate Limits Without an API key, you're limited to 5 requests per 30-second window. With an API key, you’re allowed up to 50 requests in the same period. To prevent request throttling, it's recommended to introduce slight delays between consecutive API calls in production setups. Clone or import this workflow into your n8n instance. Set up the following credentials: Google Sheets OAuth2 NVD API Key (via HTTP Header Auth) The workflow logs data to a Google Sheet titled NVD Database, with Sheet 1 named CVE Lookup and Sheet 2 named CVE History. Trigger each workflow using the respective webhook URL, appending ?cveId=CVE-XXXX-XXXX as a query parameter. 🔍 Example Webhook Request (CVE Change History) You can test this workflow with the following example: GET https://your-domain.com/webhook/cve-history?cveId=CVE-2023-34362 How to customize this workflow Use the Edit Fields node (optional) to centralize configuration like sheet name or query input Extend the CVE flattening logic to include more nested metadata if needed Integrate notification systems (e.g., Slack or email) by branching from the processing nodes Modify webhook paths for better endpoint organization 🔐 Production Security Tips Use HTTP Header Auth on the webhook for secure access > ⚠️ This template uses webhooks and NVD API access with authentication headers. This template uses two flows: Webhook 1:** NVD CVE Lookup — Lookup CVE vulnerability metadata from NVD and sync to Google Sheet Webhook 2:** NVD CVE Change History — Track change history for CVEs via NVD and log each update Each flow: Hits NVD’s respective endpoint Uses custom JS Code node to flatten the nested JSON Syncs data to dedicated Google Sheet tabs 🧩 4 nodes: Webhook → API Call → Parse → Sheet Sync Make sure both flows are activated and webhooks exposed for external access. Based on your needs, ensure you have a secure setup—whether hosted internally or in a cloud environment—when running n8n in production.

Who is this template for? This template is ideal for n8n instance administrators, developers, and DevOps teams who need a proactive and organized way to monitor the health of their automations. If you want to be notified about failures as soon as they happen, without having to manually check execution logs, this workflow is for you. What does this template do? This workflow automates error monitoring on your n8n instance. Every hour, it performs the following steps: Queries the n8n API to fetch all executions that have failed in the last hour. Groups the errors by workflow to consolidate the information. Builds a rich message for each failed workflow, including the error count. Sends an alert to a Slack channel with a button to open the workflow directly, allowing for immediate investigation. Requirements Before you start, you will need to have the following configured in your n8n instance: n8n API Credentials:** You need to generate an API key in your n8n instance settings so the workflow can query execution data. Slack Credentials:* A configured *Slack (OAuth2 API)** credential to allow n8n to send messages to your workspace. How to set it up Setup is simple and only takes a few minutes: Config Node: In the node named "Config", you must set the value for the baseUrl to your n8n instance's URL (e.g., https://n8n.yourdomain.com). This is crucial for generating the correct workflow links in the Slack message. Schedule Trigger: The workflow is pre-configured to run every hour. You can adjust the frequency in this node to fit your needs. "Get Failed Executions" Node (HTTP Request): Under Authentication, select 'Header Auth'. In the Credentials field, select your n8n API credential. "Post to Slack" Node (Slack): Select your Slack credential. In the Channel field, enter the name of the channel where error notifications should be sent (e.g., #n8n-alerts). Activate the Workflow! After these steps, just activate the workflow to start the automatic error monitoring. How to customize the workflow You can easily customize this template: Change the Schedule:** Modify the Schedule Trigger node to run at different intervals (every 15 minutes, once a day, etc.). Change the Notification Channel:** Instead of Slack, you can replace the last node to send notifications to Discord, Microsoft Teams, Telegram, or even by email. Add More Information:** You can modify the MakeMessage node that generates the message to include more details about the errors, such as the error message or the exact time of failure.
