This n8n workflow automates the process of monitoring your website’s uptime by periodically checking its status and sending an email alert if the website becomes unavailable. It helps website administrators proactively detect downtime and quickly notify the relevant team to address issues.
The workflow starts with a Schedule Trigger set to run every 5 minutes, ensuring frequent checks without manual intervention. The ‘Check Website Status’ node performs an HTTP GET request to the specified website URL, retrieving the response status code.
Next, the ‘Website Down?’ IF node evaluates whether the response status code is not 200 (indicating the website is not reachable or down). If the condition is true, the workflow proceeds to the ‘Send Downtime Email Alert’ node, which composes and sends a styled HTML email alert to a designated email address, informing the recipient about the website’s downtime, including a link to the site and the timestamp.
This workflow is practical for website owners and IT teams seeking automatic, timely alerts about website outages, minimizing downtime impact and enabling quicker response times. It leverages core n8n nodes like Schedule, HTTP Request, IF condition, and Email Send for seamless automation.
