Target Audience

This workflow is ideal for:
- Sales Teams looking to capture and manage leads efficiently.
- Marketing Departments aiming to filter out specific email addresses from their lead lists.
- Data Analysts who need to automate the process of updating user information in Google Sheets.
- Small Businesses wanting to streamline their customer relationship management without complex setups.

Problem Solved

This workflow addresses the challenge of managing and filtering user data effectively. Specifically, it automates the process of:
- Listening for updates in the Postgres database, which allows for real-time data management.
- Filtering out unwanted email addresses (e.g., those from @n8n.io), ensuring that only qualified leads are processed.
- Appending or updating user information in Google Sheets, making it easier to track and manage leads without manual entry.

Workflow Steps

  • Manual Trigger: The workflow begins with a manual trigger, allowing users to test the workflow at their convenience.
    2. Mock Data Generation: The 'Code' node generates mock user data to simulate real-time updates from the database.
    3. Postgres Trigger: Although disabled, this node is designed to listen for updates in the 'users' table of a Postgres database.
    4. Filtering: The 'Filter' node processes the incoming data, excluding any users with @n8n.io in their email addresses.
    5. Google Sheets Integration: The qualified user data is then appended or updated in a specified Google Sheets document, allowing for easy tracking of leads.
