# Zapier and n8n: Automate Your KonfHub Event Workflows

> Connect KonfHub to thousands of apps with Zapier or n8n. Automate workflows like syncing registrations to Google Sheets, HubSpot, Slack, and more.

KonfHub integrates with both Zapier and n8n, giving you two powerful paths to automate your event workflows without building custom API integrations from scratch. Use **Zapier** for a no-code, point-and-click approach that connects KonfHub to 6,000+ apps in minutes. Use **n8n** for a more flexible, self-hosted workflow engine that lets you build sophisticated, branching automations triggered by real-time KonfHub webhook events. Both integrations are available on the **Gold plan**.

## Zapier

Zapier is a no-code automation platform that connects your apps with automated workflows called Zaps. Each Zap consists of a **trigger** (something that happens in KonfHub) and one or more **actions** (things that happen automatically in other apps). No code, no APIs, no engineering effort required.

### What the Zapier Integration Enables

With the KonfHub–Zapier integration, you can trigger automated actions in thousands of third-party apps every time an attendee registers for your event. This means your registration data flows automatically into your marketing tools, databases, communications platforms, and project management apps the moment it is created.

### Popular Zaps

### How to Connect KonfHub with Zapier

<Steps>
  <Step title="Visit the KonfHub Zapier Page">
    Go to [zapier.com/apps/konfhub/integrations](https://zapier.com/apps/konfhub/integrations) to browse all available KonfHub triggers and actions on the Zapier platform.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create a New Zap">
    Click **Create Zap**, choose **KonfHub** as the trigger app, and select the trigger event (for example, **New Attendee Registration**).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect Your KonfHub Account">
    Authenticate your KonfHub account within Zapier when prompted. You will need your KonfHub API key, which you can find in your event dashboard under the **Developers** section.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select Your Event">
    Choose the specific KonfHub event you want to monitor for new registrations or other trigger activity.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Configure Your Action App">

  </Step>

  <Step title="Test and Activate">
    Run a test to confirm data flows correctly, then turn on your Zap. It will run automatically in the background from that point on.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## n8n

n8n is a powerful, open-source workflow automation platform that gives you far more flexibility than Zapier for complex, custom integrations. KonfHub connects to n8n through real-time webhooks, meaning KonfHub sends event data directly to your n8n Webhook URL as soon as an event occurs.

### What the n8n Integration Enables

By pointing KonfHub at your n8n webhook endpoint, you unlock n8n's full suite of nodes and logic to process KonfHub event data in any way you need. Build multi-step workflows with conditional branching, data transformation, API calls to internal systems, custom database writes, and more — all triggered by live KonfHub events.

### Supported Trigger Events

n8n workflows can be triggered by any of the following KonfHub events:

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Attendee Registration" icon="user-plus">
    New attendee completes registration for your event.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Attendee Cancellation" icon="user-minus">
    An existing attendee cancels their registration.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Check-In" icon="door-open">
    An attendee is checked in at the event venue.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Check-Out" icon="door-closed">
    An attendee checks out of the event venue.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Lead Generation" icon="id-badge">
    A new lead is captured via the Lead Capture App.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

### How to Configure n8n with KonfHub

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create a Webhook Node in n8n">
    In your n8n instance, create a new workflow and add a **Webhook** node as the trigger. Set the HTTP method to `POST`. Copy the generated webhook URL — it will look something like `https://your-n8n-instance.com/webhook/konfhub-events`.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open Your KonfHub Event Dashboard">
    In KonfHub, navigate to your event's **Developers** section.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Paste Your n8n Webhook URL">
    In the Webhooks configuration panel, paste your n8n Webhook URL into the endpoint field.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select the Events to Send">
    Choose which KonfHub events should trigger your n8n workflow: Registration, Cancellation, Check-In, Check-Out, Lead Generation — or any combination.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save and Build Your Workflow">
    Save the KonfHub webhook configuration. Back in n8n, build out the rest of your workflow — add nodes to filter data, transform fields, call external APIs, write to databases, send notifications, and more.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Activate the Workflow">
    Activate your n8n workflow. KonfHub will now send a real-time POST request to your n8n endpoint every time a selected event occurs.
  </Step>
</Steps>

### Example n8n Workflow: Registration → CRM + Slack

The following describes a typical n8n workflow you might build:

```
[KonfHub Webhook Trigger]
        ↓
[Filter: ticket_type == "VIP"]
        ↓
    [Split]
   ↙        ↘
[HubSpot    [Slack: Post
 Create      message to
 Contact]    #vip-guests]
```

This workflow receives every registration, filters for VIP ticket holders only, then simultaneously creates a HubSpot contact and posts a Slack notification to your VIP team channel.

### n8n vs. Zapier: Which Should You Use?

<Accordion title="Choose Zapier if...">
  * You want a **no-code, visual** setup with minimal technical overhead
  * You need to connect to **mainstream SaaS tools** (Google Sheets, HubSpot, Mailchimp, Slack)
  * You don't need complex branching logic or custom data transformations
  * You want to be up and running in under 10 minutes
</Accordion>

<Accordion title="Choose n8n if...">
  * You need **custom logic**, conditional branching, or complex data transformations
  * You want to connect to **internal systems**, proprietary APIs, or databases not supported by Zapier
  * You prefer a **self-hosted or open-source** solution for data privacy or cost reasons
  * Your team has technical resources to manage the n8n instance and workflows
</Accordion>

<Note>
  Both Zapier and n8n integrations are available on the **Gold plan**. If you need webhook-based automation without the Gold plan, consider setting up KonfHub's native **Webhooks** feature (available on Silver and above) and handling the automation logic yourself on your server.
