Workflow api health check

★ 6.2 · n8n · simple · 4 nodes

Workflow api health check is an n8n automation template that checks API endpoint availability on a schedule and captures the results. Reach for it when you need to automatically verify that external services or your own APIs are up — without manually testing them each time something might have gone down — or when you want to catch downtime before end users start reporting it. Trigger: Schedule Trigger (n8n polls endpoints at defined intervals and inspects response status). Integrations: none defined out of the box — notification and storage logic is added by the user to fit their stack. Node count is not confirmed from source; the template imports as a standard n8n workflow JSON into any self-hosted or cloud n8n instance. Direction: active outbound health checking, not receiving inbound webhooks or processing form data. Suits teams that want a lightweight automated ping without standing up a dedicated monitoring service; not the right fit if you need latency metrics or historical aggregation — those require extending the template manually.
