Save applications with Slack and PostgreSQL
Starts when someone submits the form across Slack, PostgreSQL and Gmail, routes each kind of record down its own branch. Built for drip campaigns, around a "Route by Work Type" step, in 13 documented nodes.
Save applications with PostgreSQL and Gmail end to end. An original, ready-to-import n8n workflow built around the 'Form Intake' pattern for marketing & advertising. It starts from a form and orchestrates 13 nodes across Slack, PostgreSQL, Gmail. 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 Slack and PostgreSQL in step for drip campaigns, without anyone re-typing a row
- ✓A failed Slack or PostgreSQL call is retried rather than dropped, at any of the 13 nodes in this drip-campaigns build
- ✓Bad input stops the run for drip campaigns instead of landing in Slack
- ✓Branches rejoin before Slack, so a drip-campaigns run reports once rather than 13 times
- ✓Every drip-campaigns run leaves an audit row behind, alongside Slack
Use cases
- →Teams keeping Slack and PostgreSQL aligned by hand for drip campaigns
- →Intake checked for completeness before it is stored in Slack, for drip campaigns
- →Drip campaigns work where "Route by Work Type" is still a manual step before Slack
- →Drip campaigns work that only reaches Slack when a form is submitted, when someone remembers to start it

What's inside (13 nodes)
A look at the node types this workflow uses. No purchase required — full parameters and credentials are yours after you buy.
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
Core levelA compact production shape: validation and error handling without extra machinery.
- •Serving an n8n-hosted form and shaping each submission
- •Validating required fields before anything is written
- •Sending incomplete submissions to review instead of storing them
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, PostgreSQL, Gmail). 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.
