Automated Log Reporting to BetterStack from n8n

somdn_product_page

This n8n workflow is designed to streamline logging by sending log messages directly to BetterStack Logs for centralized monitoring and analysis. It can be utilized in two primary ways: either as a standalone workflow triggered manually or as a sub-workflow embedded within larger automation processes.

The process begins with a manual trigger node, allowing users to execute the workflow on demand. Alternatively, it can be triggered from another workflow by passing in log details such as ‘level’ (severity) and ‘message’ (log content). Once triggered, the ‘Send Log to BetterStack’ HTTP Request node constructs and sends a POST request containing the log data to a specified BetterStack logs endpoint. This request includes authentication headers, typically with an API token, to ensure secure data transfer.

Supporting nodes, including sticky notes, provide visual documentation and setup instructions, making it easier for users to understand and customize the workflow.

This workflow is particularly useful for developers and system administrators who want to automate error reporting, status updates, or other log entries, consolidating logs into BetterStack for real-time monitoring, alerting, and troubleshooting.
