Who is this for? This workflow is tailored for content creators, artists, and developers who use Ko-fi to receive financial support through donations, subscriptions, or product sales.
Use case This workflow automates the process of receiving and categorizing payment notifications from Ko-fi, ensuring that creators can focus on their work rather than administrative tasks.
What this workflow does - Webhook Reception: The workflow listens for incoming payment notifications from Ko-fi via a configured webhook. - Token Verification: It validates incoming requests to ensure they originate from Ko-fi using a verification token for enhanced security. - Type Differentiation: It categorizes payments into types—donations, subscriptions, and shop orders—allowing for tailored handling for each payment type. - Custom Response Options: Depending on the payment type received, the workflow activates specific actions or processes, enabling seamless integration with other applications or services.
Setup 1. Webhook Configuration: - Access the Webhook node within the workflow and take note of your unique webhook URL. - Visit your Ko-fi webhooks management page at [Ko-fi Webhooks Management](https://ko-fi.com/manage/webhooks) and input this URL.
2. Verification Token Setup: - In your Ko-fi account, locate the verification token in the advanced settings. - Input this token in the Prepare node of your n8n workflow.
3. Enable the Workflow: - Activate the workflow in n8n to start listening for incoming webhook notifications.
4. Testing: - Use the test feature in the Ko-fi webhooks settings to send a test webhook to ensure everything is functioning as expected.
How to customize this workflow to your needs - Add Actions for Each Payment Type: You can modify the Donation, Subscription, and Shop Order nodes to include actions such as sending emails, logging payments within a database, or triggering notifications. - Enhance Security Measures: You can further refine the Check token node to include additional checks or to log all incoming webhook requests for monitoring.
