Onboard new hires from a webhook
Fires the moment a webhook arrives across Google Sheets and Outlook, pauses on a Wait node until it is time to continue, then branches on the check before anything is written. Built for task routing, around a "Segment Audience" step, in 21 documented nodes.
Onboard new hires with Google Sheets and Outlook for your team. An original, ready-to-import n8n workflow built around the 'Onboarding Sequence' pattern for software development & devops. It fires on a webhook and orchestrates 21 nodes across Google Sheets, Outlook. Retry-on-fail is enabled on external calls. Import the JSON, add your credentials, and adapt the parameters. What used to take a morning now runs on its own.
Key benefits
- ✓Keeps Google Sheets and Outlook in step for task routing, without anyone re-typing a row
- ✓A failed Google Sheets or Outlook call is retried rather than dropped, at any of the 21 nodes in this task-routing build
- ✓Bad input stops the run for task routing instead of landing in Google Sheets
- ✓The pause before Google Sheets is durable — a task-routing run survives a restart
- ✓Pinned sample data ships with it — run all 21 nodes for task routing before wiring Google Sheets
Use cases
- →Teams keeping Google Sheets and Outlook aligned by hand for task routing
- →Task routing sequences that run over days and must survive a restart before Google Sheets
- →Pushing task-routing events into Google Sheets and Outlook the moment they land, not on the next poll
- →Task routing work where "Segment Audience" is still a manual step before Google Sheets

From download to running in 3 steps
- 1Import. In n8n, open Workflows → menu → “Import from File” and pick the downloaded JSON.
- 2Connect. Add your own credentials on the app nodes - n8n highlights exactly which ones need them.
- 3Activate. Run it once to test, then toggle Active. The automation is live.
What you'll learn
Production levelProduction-grade: idempotency, dead-letter handling, and reconciliation included.
- •Staging a multi-step onboarding with waits between steps
- •Branching by segment
- •Moving data between Outlook and Google Sheets in a single run
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 (Google Sheets, Outlook). 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.
