Generate contracts: Gmail

Fires the moment a webhook arrives across Gmail and PostgreSQL, rolls the rows up into a few numbers, then runs the custom logic in a Code node. Built for summarization, around a "Gather API Numbers" step, in 14 documented nodes.

Generate contracts with HTTP / REST API and PostgreSQL and log the results. An original, ready-to-import n8n workflow built around the 'Document Generation' pattern for legal & compliance. It fires on a webhook and orchestrates 14 nodes across Gmail, HTTP / REST API, PostgreSQL. Retry-on-fail is enabled on external calls. Import the JSON, add your credentials, and adapt the parameters. Your team sees the right data at the right time.

Key benefits

  • Keeps Gmail and PostgreSQL in step for summarization, without anyone re-typing a row
  • A failed Gmail or PostgreSQL call is retried rather than dropped, at any of the 14 nodes in this summarization build
  • Branches rejoin before Gmail, so a summarization run reports once rather than 14 times
  • Every summarization run leaves an audit row behind, alongside Gmail
  • Pinned sample data ships with it — run all 14 nodes for summarization before wiring Gmail

Use cases

  • Teams keeping Gmail and PostgreSQL aligned by hand for summarization
  • Pushing summarization events into Gmail and PostgreSQL the moment they land, not on the next poll
  • Summarization work where "Gather API Numbers" is still a manual step before Gmail
  • Summarization work that only reaches Gmail when a webhook arrives, when someone remembers to start it

From download to running in 3 steps

  1. 1
    Import. In n8n, open Workflows → menu → “Import from File” and pick the downloaded JSON.
  2. 2
    Connect. Add your own credentials on the app nodes - n8n highlights exactly which ones need them.
  3. 3
    Activate. Run it once to test, then toggle Active. The automation is live.

What you'll learn

Core level

A compact production shape: validation and error handling without extra machinery.

  • Validating required fields before the write
  • Moving data between PostgreSQL and Gmail in a single run
  • Splitting one run into branches and merging the results back

Every node carries its own documentation on the canvas, plus notes explaining why the architecture was built this way, a credential setup guide, troubleshooting, and three practice exercises. Sample data comes pinned to the trigger, so you can hit Execute and watch data flow before connecting a single account.

Common questions

What exactly do I get?

The complete, ready-to-import n8n workflow as a JSON file, delivered instantly after payment. Import it into your own n8n (cloud or self-hosted), add your credentials, and it runs.

How do I import it into n8n?

In n8n, open Workflows, click the three-dot menu, choose “Import from File”, and select the downloaded JSON. Then connect your own app credentials on the highlighted nodes.

Do I need anything else for it to work?

You need your own n8n instance and accounts/credentials for the apps this workflow connects to (Gmail, HTTP / REST API, PostgreSQL). No coding is required.

What if it doesn't work for me?

If the file is faulty, won't import, or isn't as described, contact us within 7 days and we'll fix it or refund you - see our refund policy.

Can I modify or resell it?

You can freely adapt and use it in your own or your clients' projects. Reselling or redistributing the template file itself is not permitted.
