Automate Your Business with SimplyBook.me + N8N

Q: What is N8N and how does it compare to Zapier?

n8n is an open-source automation tool that allows you to connect apps and services, similar to Zapier. However, it gives you full control over your workflows, supports custom logic, and can be self-hosted, making it ideal for advanced users and development teams.

Q: What triggers are supported in the SimplyBook.me and n8n integration?

Triggers include: new booking, booking cancellation, new invoice, booking change, new client creation, and new offer being created. These allow you to automate processes across sales, operations, marketing, and admin.

Q: Do I need to be a developer to use N8N?

While n8n is more technical than Zapier, it offers a visual interface that makes it accessible for tech-savvy users. However, custom integrations or advanced API usage may require development support.

Q: Is the integration secure?

Yes. n8n can be hosted on your own infrastructure, giving you full control over data security, compliance, and privacy. All communication with SimplyBook.me uses secure webhooks and APIs.

Q: How do I connect SimplyBook.me to n8n?

SimplyBook.me sends webhook triggers when specific booking events occur. These can be received by n8n via HTTP Request nodes, and you can then build out your workflow using its visual interface. Our Help Center provides setup guides and examples.
