Webhook OUT: email notifications about publications
Every publication — an email to your inbox.
The problem
The team wants to see every publication, but doesn't constantly sit in Slack or Discord. The inbox is a natural control point, but Crosslybot can't send email directly.
How Crosslybot solves it
The outgoing webhook sends a publication event to a simple email service (SendGrid, Mailgun, Resend) via a no-code scenario. The email arrives right after the post goes out.
Crosslybot can notify the team about publications by email via an outgoing webhook. After every publication the event goes to an email service (SendGrid, Mailgun, Resend) through a no-code scenario, and the email arrives at the team’s address.
The inbox becomes a natural control point: there’s no need to open channels or the dashboard to see what was published and when. The email template is set once in the scenario, can be sent to a list of addresses and filtered to errors only.
How to set up
Connect an email service
Sign up for SendGrid, Mailgun or Resend (or use your own SMTP).
Set up a scenario
In n8n, Make or Zapier add a webhook → email node with an email template.
Enable Webhook OUT
In the Crosslybot dashboard, specify the scenario URL and enable the outgoing webhook.
Done
Every publication is sent as an email to the team's address.
What's inside
Oversight from the inbox
The team sees publications in the mail — where they look anyway. No need to open channels or the dashboard.
Email template
The template is set in the scenario — with text, platform, link and an 'Open post' button.
Several recipients
The email can be sent to a list of addresses — the whole team learns about publications at the same time.
Result
The team keeps publications under control from the inbox. There's no need to separately monitor the channels or the dashboard.
FAQ
Do I need a developer?
No. Ready email nodes exist in n8n, Make and Zapier — you set the template visually.
What if I only want emails on errors?
In the scenario you can filter by event status — send email only on failed publications.
Can I show media previews in the email?
Yes, if the template supports HTML and embedding. The payload includes links to media.
What plan is needed?
Webhook OUT is available on the Pro plan and above.
