Monitor app errors and heartbeats with OpenAI triage and Gmail alerts

Brand hub

Quick overview This workflow centralizes app error and heartbeat monitoring through a single webhook, uses OpenAI to triage new error types, stores state in n8n Data Tables, and sends Gmail alerts for urgent issues, repeated failures (escalation), back-online notifications, silence warnings, and periodic digests. How it works Receives POST webhook events from apps and, depending on the run source, also performs a daily scheduled check, handles workflow-failure events, or runs a one-time setup. Validates and authenticates each incoming webhook using a per-app token (and optional allowed IPs), masks sensitive data, and classifies the payload as an error or heartbeat. For heartbeats, updates the app’s last heartbeat in the Watched apps Data Table, clears any “missing” flag, and emails a back-online message via Gmail if the app had previously gone silent.
