About n8n

n8n is an open-source workflow automation tool that allows users to create automated workflows through a user-friendly interface. It enables seamless integration of various apps, services, and APIs, facilitating data flow and actions between them. With a no-code/low-code approach, n8n empowers users to design complex workflows without the need for extensive programming knowledge. The platform offers a wide range of built-in nodes (integrations) that cover popular applications and services, as well as custom nodes for specific use cases. Users can trigger workflows based on events, schedules, or manual inputs, making it a versatile tool for process automation and task management.

Supported triggers

The crowd.dev trigger node allows you to respond to events in crowd.dev and integrate crowd.dev with other applications. n8n has built-in support for a wide range of crowd.dev events, which includes new activities and new members.

• New Activity: This trigger is activated when a new activity happens in your community platforms connected to crowd.dev. For example, someone starred your repo, sent a message in Discord, etc. You can make this trigger granular. For example, only activate it when someone opens a pull request on GitHub and mentions a specific keyword. On the other side of the spectrum, you can configure this trigger to be a "catch-all", but this setup is not recommended because it will be quite hard to distinguish between different events on n8n side. So the recommended configuration is to keep this trigger as narrow as possible.
• New Member: This trigger is activated when a new member joins your community platforms connected to crowd.dev. In crowd.dev, a member is considered anyone who performed at least one action at your community platforms - e.g., joined a Discord server or did something on GitHub (the trigger is activated only once for each user). This trigger can be configured as a "catch-all" (all new member activities for all active platforms) or only for specific platforms.
