Send structured logs to BetterStack from any workflow using HTTP Request

Description

Send structured logs to BetterStack from any workflow using HTTP Request

Who is this for?

This workflow is perfect for automation builders, developers, and DevOps teams using n8n who want to send structured log messages to BetterStack Logs. Whether you're monitoring mission-critical workflows or simply want centralized visibility into process execution, this reusable log template makes integration easy.

What problem is this workflow solving?

Logging failures or events across multiple workflows typically requires duplicated logic. This workflow solves that by acting as a shared log sender, letting you forward consistent log entries from any other workflow using the Execute Workflow node.

What this workflow does

Accepts level (e.g., "info", "warn", "error") and message fields via Execute Workflow Trigger
Sends the structured log to your BetterStack ingestion endpoint via HTTP Request
Uses HTTP Header Auth for secure delivery
Includes a manual trigger for testing and a sample call to demonstrate usage
Comes with clear sticky notes to help you get started

Setup

Copy your BetterStack Logs ingestion URL.
Create a Header Auth credential in n8n with your Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY.
Replace the URL in the HTTP Request node with your BetterStack endpoint.
Optionally modify the test data or log levels for custom scenarios.
Use Execute Workflow in any of your workflows to send logs here.
