Does it work with self-hosted n8n?

Yes, as long as the webhook URL is reachable over HTTPS from the internet.

What does the webhook send?

A JSON body with the event, such as lead.hot_lead, lead.stage_changed, lead.digest or brand.negative_mention, and the lead or mention it is about.

Not yet. The webhook covers the same events and works with any n8n plan that can receive webhooks.

Leads into the tools you already use

Send new leads, stage changes and brand mentions from RanklyBee to an n8n workflow, and on to your CRM, a database or any service n8n connects.

What you get

Leads in your CRM
Create or update a contact in HubSpot, Pipedrive or Salesforce when a lead reaches a stage.
A lead log
Add every lead to Google Sheets or Airtable with its platform, link and score.
Anywhere n8n reaches
Post to Microsoft Teams, open a task in your project tool or start any workflow you build.
Signed requests
Every webhook is signed with a secret, so your workflow only acts on requests from RanklyBee.

Setup

RanklyBee sends a signed webhook; n8n takes it from there.

01
In n8n, add a Webhook node set to POST, activate the workflow and copy its production URL.
02
In RanklyBee, open Leads → Automations, choose an event such as a lead moving to In conversation, pick Webhook and paste the URL.
03
Copy the webhook signing secret from Automations. Each request carries an x-ranklybee-timestamp header and an x-ranklybee-signature header of v1= followed by the HMAC-SHA256 of the timestamp, a dot and the raw body, so n8n can check it came from RanklyBee.
