Automatically notifies you via various channels when any of your n8n workflows encounter an error.

About This Workflow

This workflow is designed to provide immediate alerts whenever an n8n workflow fails. It leverages the Error Trigger node to capture error details and then uses a Code node to format a comprehensive message. This message can then be sent to multiple notification services, including Telegram, Gmail, and potentially others like WhatsApp, Slack, and Discord (though these are currently disabled in the provided JSON).

Key Features

Real-time Error Detection: Triggers instantly when any workflow execution results in an error.
Comprehensive Error Details: Captures workflow name, node name, error message, description, timestamp, execution URL, and error level.
Flexible Notification Channels: Supports sending notifications to Telegram and Gmail out-of-the-box, with easy integration for other services.
Customizable Message Formatting: The Code node allows for tailoring the alert message using HTML for rich formatting.
Centralized Monitoring: Provides a single point of contact for all workflow failures.

How To Use

Add to your n8n instance: Import the provided JSON into your n8n workspace.
Configure Error Trigger: This node is automatically set up to catch errors from all workflows.
Configure Code Node: The provided JavaScript code extracts and formats error details. The chat_id for Telegram is a placeholder (<your_chat_id>) and needs to be replaced with your actual Telegram chat ID.
Set up Credentials: Ensure you have set up and selected the correct credentials for the notification nodes you intend to use (e.g., Gmail account for Gmail, Khaisa Monitoring Bot for Telegram).
Enable Notification Nodes: Uncomment or enable the desired notification nodes (e.g., Notify Gmail, Notify Telegram) and configure them with their respective parameters (e.g., recipient email for Gmail).
Enable the Workflow: Activate the workflow to start receiving error notifications.
