Listen for keywords: Slack & Notion
Runs on a schedule across Slack, Notion and Google Sheets, scores the sentiment of every message, then drops anything it has already handled. Built for engagement, around a "Keep Valid Posts" step, in 33 documented nodes.
Listen for keywords with HTTP / REST API and Slack hands-free. An original, ready-to-import n8n workflow built around the 'Social Listening' pattern for marketing & advertising. It runs on a schedule and orchestrates 33 nodes across Slack, Notion, Google Sheets. It uses n8n's LangChain AI nodes (Agent/Chain + chat model). Retry-on-fail is enabled on external calls. Import the JSON, add your credentials, and adapt the parameters. Nothing slips through the cracks.
Key benefits
- ✓Keeps Slack and Notion in step for engagement, without anyone re-typing a row
- ✓Safe to re-run: records already in Slack or Notion are skipped, across all 33 nodes of this engagement build
- ✓A failed Slack or Notion call is retried rather than dropped, at any of the 33 nodes in this engagement build
- ✓Branches rejoin before Slack, so a engagement run reports once rather than 33 times
- ✓Every engagement run leaves an audit row behind, alongside Slack
Use cases
- →Teams keeping Slack and Notion aligned by hand for engagement
- →Engagement work where "Keep Valid Posts" is still a manual step before Slack
- →Engagement work that only reaches Slack on a schedule, when someone remembers to start it

From download to running in 3 steps
- 1Import. In n8n, open Workflows → menu → “Import from File” and pick the downloaded JSON.

What you'll learn
Architect levelThe deepest tier - sub-workflow delegation, state snapshots, and full observability.
- •Polling a feed and deduplicating across executions
- •Filtering to only what is worth surfacing
- •Cross-posting to several channels in parallel
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 (Slack, Notion, Google Sheets, HTTP / REST API). 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.
