n8n Integration

Receive Swft order events in n8n using the Webhook node, then chain any action — Airtable, Notion, Slack, email, or your own API.

Option 1 — Webhook trigger node (recommended)

Use this when you want n8n to receive events in real time as they happen.

Steps

Add a Webhook node to your workflow
Set HTTP Method to POST
Copy the webhook URL n8n gives you — it looks like:
```
https://your-n8n-instance.com/webhook/abc123
```
In the Swft dashboard Settings → Integrations, paste this URL into the inbound webhook field and copy it
Register the subscription by calling the Swft API directly (or via an n8n HTTP Request node on workflow activation):

POST https://api.swft.co.uk/merchants/zapier/subscribe
x-swft-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY
Content-Type: application/json

{
  "target_url": "https://your-n8n-instance.com/webhook/abc123",
  "event": "order.completed",
  "provider": "n8n"
}

Available events: order.completed, order.failed, cart.abandoned, refund.issued

Activate your workflow — Swft will now POST to n8n every time the event fires

Unregistering

When you deactivate your workflow, call:

DELETE https://api.swft.co.uk/merchants/zapier/unsubscribe
x-swft-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY
Content-Type: application/json

{ "target_url": "https://your-n8n-instance.com/webhook/abc123" }

Option 2 — HTTP Request node (polling / one-off)

Use an HTTP Request node to fetch data from Swft on demand (e.g. in a scheduled workflow).

Field	Value
Method	GET / POST
URL	`https://api.swft.co.uk/merchants/analytics`
Authentication	Header Auth
Header name	`x-swft-api-key`
Header value	Your merchant API key

Sample workflow — Order completed → Airtable row

Import this JSON into n8n via Workflows → Import from clipboard:

{
  "name": "Swft — Order to Airtable",
  "nodes": [
    {
      "parameters": {
        "httpMethod": "POST",
        "path": "swft-order",
        "responseMode": "onReceived"
      },
      "name": "Swft Webhook",
      "type": "n8n-nodes-base.webhook",
      "typeVersion": 1,
      "position": [250, 300]
    },
    {
      "parameters": {
        "operation": "create",
        "application": "YOUR_AIRTABLE_BASE_ID",
        "table": "Orders",
        "additionalFields": {},
        "fields": {
          "Order ID":    "={{ $json.data.order_id }}",
          "Customer":    "={{ $json.data.customer.first_name }} {{ $json.data.customer.last_name }}",
          "Email":       "={{ $json.data.customer.email }}",
          "Total (£)":   "={{ ($json.data.total_pence / 100).toFixed(2) }}",
          "Currency":    "={{ $json.data.currency }}",
          "Event":       "={{ $json.event }}",
          "Created At":  "={{ $json.created_at }}"
        }
      },
      "name": "Create Airtable Row",
      "type": "n8n-nodes-base.airtable",
      "typeVersion": 1,
      "position": [500, 300]
    }
  ],
  "connections": {
    "Swft Webhook": {
      "main": [[{ "node": "Create Airtable Row", "type": "main", "index": 0 }]]
    }
  }
}

Replace YOUR_AIRTABLE_BASE_ID and configure Airtable credentials in n8n. The expression $json.data.total_pence / 100 converts pence to pounds.

Payload reference

See the Zapier integration page for the full payload field reference — the payload shape is identical across all integrations.
