Automated Weather Alerts and Data Logging via Webhook
detail.loadingPreview
Seamlessly capture incoming data via webhook, enrich it with real-time weather information, and log it to Airtable. This workflow then sends personalized weather alerts via Twilio, streamlining your operational data management and communication.
About This Workflow
This n8n workflow automates the process of receiving external data, enriching it with real-time weather forecasts, and distributing this information. It begins by listening for incoming POST requests on a secure webhook. Upon receiving data, it extracts crucial details like name, number, and city, then logs this information into an Airtable base. Subsequently, it queries the OpenWeatherMap API using the provided city name to fetch current weather conditions. Finally, it leverages Twilio to send a concise, personalized SMS message to the specified number, detailing the weather in the given location. This solution is ideal for businesses requiring efficient data capture, real-time insights, and automated customer notifications.
Key Features
- Real-time Data Ingestion: Capture data instantly from any source using a secure webhook.
- Intelligent Data Enrichment: Automatically fetch current weather conditions for any specified city.
- Automated Data Logging: Seamlessly store incoming data and weather details in your Airtable base.
- Personalized SMS Alerts: Send timely, customized weather notifications via Twilio.
- Customizable Data Mapping: Easily define and transform incoming data fields for your needs.
How To Use
- Configure Webhook: Set up the 'Webhook' node with your desired path and authentication method (e.g.,
headerAuth). Ensure your external application sends POST requests to this endpoint. - Map Incoming Data: Use the 'Set' node to extract and rename fields from your webhook's JSON body (e.g.,
name,number,city). Ensure 'keepOnlySet' is enabled for cleaner data. - Log to Airtable: Connect the 'Set' node to the 'Airtable' node. Configure your Airtable credentials and select the target table for data logging.
- Fetch Weather Data: Connect the 'Airtable' node to the 'OpenWeatherMap' node. Set the
cityNameparameter to dynamically pull the city from your incoming webhook data. - Send SMS Alerts: Connect the 'OpenWeatherMap' node to the 'Twilio' node. Configure your Twilio credentials and craft your SMS message using dynamic data from previous nodes, including weather details and recipient number.
