Reliability for n8n

Know when critical workflows go quiet.

Argin monitors n8n workflow heartbeats, detects when automations stop reporting, opens incidents, and helps teams respond before clients notice.

Built specifically for n8n workflows.

Why it matters

Less time checking. More confidence delivering.

Stop repeatedly checking whether client automations are still running. Argin watches expected heartbeat intervals and surfaces problems when workflows go quiet.

  1. 01

    Catch silent failures sooner

    Know when a workflow stops reporting instead of discovering the issue hours later through a client complaint.

  2. 02

    Respond with context

    See the affected workflow, current health state, last heartbeat, and active incident from one dashboard.

  3. 03

    Reduce manual monitoring

    Replace repeated n8n execution checks with expected intervals, grace windows, and automatic incident detection.

  4. 04

    Protect client trust

    Give your team a reliable process for identifying and responding to automation failures.

Product

Everything needed to know when an automation needs attention.

The operating loop is heartbeat, health state, incident, notification, and recovery. Supporting controls sit around that loop—not beside it as equals.

Core loop

Lead intake

  1. 01

    Heartbeat received

    Lead intake posts a successful run to its ingest URL.

    Healthy
  2. 02

    Heartbeat overdue

    The expected interval plus warning grace has passed.

    Warning
  3. 03

    Threshold exceeded

    Argin opens a heartbeat-overdue incident and can notify the team.

    Open
  4. 04

    Heartbeat resumes

    A later success records recovery and can resolve the overdue incident.

    Resolved
  1. Monitor

    Workflow heartbeat monitoring

    Register an n8n workflow and send success or failure heartbeats to your Argin ingest URL on every run.

  2. Evaluate

    Healthy, warning, and critical states

    Argin evaluates heartbeats and updates stored health so your dashboard reflects overdue, failed, paused, or recovering workflows.

  3. Respond

    Automatic incident detection and recovery

    When a registered workflow misses its expected heartbeat, Argin changes its health state and opens an incident. When heartbeats resume, recovery can resolve the overdue incident.

Around the loop

  • Expected intervals and grace windows

    Configure how often a workflow should report, plus warning and critical tolerances before Argin treats it as overdue.

    Noise stays low while true silent failures still surface on time.

  • Incident emails, recovery alerts, and quiet hours

    Email alerts cover incident created, escalated, and recovered events, with organization notification preferences and quiet-hours support.

    The right people hear about failures—and when things recover—without living in n8n.

  • Workflow history and organization access

    Review runs, incidents, approvals, and timeline history on each workflow. Pause, resume, edit, search, and filter from a shared organization dashboard.

    Investigation and day-to-day monitoring stay in one place for your team.

  • Human approval checkpoints

    Pause a supported automation path while an authorized organization member reviews a request, then return the decision through the approval callback.

    Sensitive workflow actions can keep a human in the loop without leaving the operational record behind.

Setup

How Argin works

Register the workflow, send heartbeat events from n8n, and let Argin evaluate health from those observable check-ins.

  1. 01

    Register the workflow

    Create a workflow in Argin and configure its expected run interval.

  2. 02

    Send heartbeat events

    Add the generated Argin endpoint to the workflow’s success and failure paths.

  3. 03

    Let Argin watch it

    Argin evaluates the heartbeat, updates workflow health, opens incidents, and sends alerts when attention is required.

Heartbeat payload

Success path

{
  "executionId": "run-12345",
  "status": "success"
}

Supported n8n heartbeat JSON. Failed runs also send status: "failed" with an optional error message.

Agencies

Monitor the workflows your clients depend on.

A silent automation failure can become a client-facing problem before the operator notices. Argin gives agencies and operators a shared place to see health, incidents, and recovery without opening every n8n execution log.

Start monitoring
  • Important email and lead routing

    A broken webhook or expired credential can leave high-intent leads sitting untouched.

    Argin alerts the team when the workflow stops checking in.

  • CRM synchronization

    Silent sync failures leave CRM records stale while teams keep working from outdated data.

    Missed heartbeats open incidents so ops can restore the pipeline before clients notice.

  • Client reporting pipelines

    Overnight report jobs can fail quietly and only surface when a stakeholder asks for numbers.

    Expected intervals catch the gap before the meeting starts.

  • Orders, invoices, and payment workflows

    Payment or invoice automations that stall create revenue and trust risk.

    Health states and email alerts give your team a clear path to respond.

Product design

Built for operational clarity.

Argin does not invent health. What you see is based on observable heartbeat events, recorded incident state, and organization-scoped access—so operators can inspect why a workflow looks healthy, warning, or critical.

  • Observable inputs

    Workflow health is derived from heartbeat events your automations send and the expected intervals and grace windows your team configures.

  • Traceable response

    Incident state, assignment, acknowledgements, and recovery stay together in the operational record for the workflow that failed.

  • Permission-aware access

    Workflow, incident, and approval data stay scoped to the active organization, with role-based actions for members, admins, and owners.
