Step by step: 1. Error Trigger automatically activates whenever any workflow in your n8n instance encounters an error or failure 2. Google Sheets - Create Error Log captures and stores comprehensive error details in a spreadsheet including workflow information, node details, timestamps, and full error stack traces 3. Gmail - Send Notification dispatches immediate email alerts with formatted error summaries containing workflow names, failed nodes, error descriptions, and direct links to failed executions How to set up 1. Copy the Google Sheets template structure from this link: - This step is crucial as it provides the correct column structure for error logging 2. Connect your Google Sheets account to the Google Sheets node and update the document ID to point to your copied error logging spreadsheet 3. Connect your Gmail account to the Gmail node for sending error notifications 4. Update the Gmail recipient email from "n8nlogtemplate@yopmail.com" to your preferred notification email address 5. Customize email subject and message format according to your notification preferences and organizational needs 6. Test the workflow by intentionally creating a small error in a test workflow to verify the logging and notification system works correctly 7. Monitor your error logs regularly through the Google Sheets document to identify patterns and recurring issues How to customize this workflow to your needs Add multiple notification recipients: modify the Gmail node to send alerts to different team members or create separate nodes for different notification channels (Slack, Discord, etc.) Customize error filtering: add conditional logic to only log certain types of errors or exclude specific workflows from monitoring Enhance error categorization: add additional columns to your Google Sheets template for error severity levels, affected systems, or resolution status tracking Set up error escalation: create time-based triggers that send follow-up notifications for unresolved errors after specific time periods Need help customizing?
