What is n8n Integration in Feedspace?

Overview

Feedspace integrates with n8n — an open-source workflow automation tool available as a self-hosted solution or a cloud service. Using Feedspace webhooks and n8n’s workflow nodes, you can automatically send notifications, back up testimonials, and connect Feedspace to hundreds of other services whenever a new testimonial is submitted.

Note: Automation through n8n requires the Feedspace webhook feature, available on Professional and Business Plans.

How Feedspace Connects with n8n

The Feedspace and n8n integration works through webhooks:

1. You create a Webhook Trigger node in n8n — this gives you a unique webhook URL.
2. You register that URL in Feedspace under Automation → Webhooks.
3. Every time a new testimonial is submitted in Feedspace, the event payload is sent to n8n automatically.
4. n8n processes the data and triggers downstream nodes — Slack, Discord, Google Drive, or any other connected service.

What Can You Automate with n8n?

• Send Slack or Discord messages when a new testimonial arrives
• Forward testimonial alerts to Telegram or WhatsApp
• Upload video testimonial files to Google Drive or Dropbox
• Create Notion database entries from new testimonials
• Send email notifications or push data to any HTTP endpoint

Step 1: Set Up n8n

You can use n8n in two ways:

• n8n Cloud: Sign up at cloud.n8n.io for a managed instance.
• Self-hosted: Install n8n on your own server using npm (npm install -g n8n) or Docker.

Step 2: Create a Workflow with a Webhook Trigger

1. Log in to your n8n instance and click + New Workflow.
2. Click Add first step and search for Webhook.
3. Select the Webhook trigger node.
4. Set the HTTP Method to POST and copy the Webhook URL shown in the node panel.

Step 3: Register the Webhook in Feedspace

1. Log in to your Feedspace workspace.
2. Go to Automation in the left sidebar, then open the Webhooks tab.
3. Click Add Webhook and paste the n8n webhook URL into the endpoint field.
4. Select the events you want to listen to (e.g., review.created) and click Create.

Step 4: Add Action Nodes and Activate

1. Back in n8n, add the action nodes you need (Slack, Discord, Google Drive, etc.).
2. Map the fields from the Feedspace webhook payload to each action node.
3. Click Test workflow to confirm everything works, then toggle the workflow Active.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is n8n free?

n8n is open-source and free to self-host. The cloud plan (cloud.n8n.io) has a free trial and paid plans based on workflow executions. On the Feedspace side, webhooks require a Professional or Business plan.

How is n8n different from Zapier or Make?

n8n is open-source and can be self-hosted, giving you full control over your data. It uses a node-based editor similar to Make but with more developer-friendly features like code nodes and custom HTTP requests. Zapier and Make have native Feedspace modules, while n8n connects via Feedspace webhooks and HTTP nodes.

Why Use n8n with Feedspace?

• Full data control: Self-host n8n on your own server so all testimonial data stays within your infrastructure.
• No per-task fees when self-hosted: Run unlimited workflow executions without per-operation billing on a self-hosted n8n instance.
• Flexible connectivity: Use Feedspace webhooks alongside n8n’s HTTP, Slack, Discord, Google Drive, Dropbox, and Notion nodes to build any automation you need.
• Developer-friendly: Add custom JavaScript code nodes to transform or enrich testimonial data before passing it to other systems.
• Automatic round-the-clock processing: Once active, your n8n workflow handles every new testimonial automatically without any manual intervention.
