Sell from n8n

Create a listing, register a webhook, and notify Slack when an order arrives.

This example builds an n8n workflow that creates a listing, registers a webhook, and sends a Slack message each time an order is paid. It covers the two most common ListBee actions in n8n: creating content to sell and reacting to payments.

Prerequisites

  • n8n instance with n8n-nodes-listbee installed (see n8n setup)
  • ListBee API key from console.listbee.so
  • Slack credential configured in n8n

Workflow steps

1. Manual trigger (or schedule)

Start with a Manual Trigger node to run the setup once. Swap it for a Schedule node if you want to create listings on a recurring basis.

2. Create the listing

Add a ListBee node:

  • Resource: Listing
  • Operation: Create
  • Name: Weekly Report Template
  • Price: 4900 (cents — $49.00)
  • Description: A plug-and-play template for weekly business reviews.

The node outputs the listing object. Use {{ $json.id }} to reference the listing ID in downstream nodes.

curl equivalent
$curl -X POST https://api.listbee.so/v1/listings \
>  -H "Authorization: Bearer lb_..." \
>  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
>  -d '{
>    "name": "Weekly Report Template",
>    "price": 4900,
>    "description": "A plug-and-play template for weekly business reviews."
>  }'

3. Register a webhook

Add a second ListBee node:

  • Resource: Webhook
  • Operation: Create
  • URL: your n8n Webhook node URL (see step 4)
  • Events: order.paid
curl equivalent
$curl -X POST https://api.listbee.so/v1/webhooks \
>  -H "Authorization: Bearer lb_..." \
>  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
>  -d '{
>    "url": "https://your-n8n.example.com/webhook/listbee",
>    "events": ["order.paid"]
>  }'

Note the id from the response (wh_...) — you can use it later to update or delete the webhook.

4. ListBee Trigger — receive orders

In a separate workflow, add a ListBee Trigger node:

  • Event: order.paid
  • Webhook URL: copy this URL and paste it into the webhook you created in step 3

This node activates whenever ListBee delivers an order.paid event. The full order payload is available in $json.

5. Send a Slack message

Connect a Slack node after the trigger:

  • Resource: Message
  • Operation: Post
  • Channel: #sales
  • Text: 
    New order: {{ $json.payload.buyer_email }} paid ${{ $json.payload.amount / 100 }} for {{ $json.payload.listing_snapshot.name }}

Order payload shape

When order.paid fires, the event body looks like:

1{
2  "object": "webhook_event",
3  "id": "evt_abc123",
4  "event_type": "order.paid",
5  "payload": {
6    "object": "order",
7    "id": "ord_abc123",
8    "status": "paid",
9    "buyer_email": "buyer@example.com",
10    "amount": 4900,
11    "currency": "usd",
12    "checkout_data": {},
13    "listing_snapshot": {
14      "id": "lst_abc123",
15      "name": "Weekly Report Template",
16      "slug": "weekly-report-template"
17    }
18  },
19  "created_at": "2026-04-09T10:00:00Z"
20}

Use $json.payload.buyer_email, $json.payload.amount, and $json.payload.listing_snapshot.name in Slack messages, Google Sheets rows, or any other downstream node.

Variations

Filter by listing — add an IF node after the trigger to handle events from specific listings only:

{{ $json.payload.listing_snapshot.id === 'lst_abc123' }}

Fulfill generated content — for listings without deliverables, use the ListBee node with Operation: Fulfill after generating content, passing order_id and the content to deliver.

Write to a spreadsheet — replace the Slack node with a Google Sheets node to log every order to a sheet.
