Static Forms - Secure form backend and form endpoint for contact forms
Native

n8n Integration

Send every submission to an n8n workflow via a native webhook URL

Static Forms has a built-in n8n integration. Paste the production URL of an n8n Webhook node into a form's Delivery settings and every submission is POSTed to your workflow as JSON — whether your n8n runs on n8n Cloud or your own server.

Pro & Agency Feature

The Make / n8n integration is available on the Pro and Agency plans (including their trials). It is not available on the Free plan. Upgrade your plan to unlock it.

How It Works

  • You configure the webhook per form on that form's Delivery settings page — not in global settings.
  • Each submission is POSTed as a JSON payload to your n8n Webhook node's production URL.
  • The provider (Make vs n8n) is auto-detected from the URL — you paste one URL into the same Make / n8n card.
  • Delivery is fire-and-forget in the background: it never blocks the submission, and your normal email forwarding still happens as usual.
  • The last delivery error (if any) is recorded and shown on the card for troubleshooting.

Setup

1

Add a Webhook node to your workflow

In n8n (n8n Cloud or your own instance), create or open a workflow and add a Webhook node.

  1. Set HTTP Method to POST.
  2. Activate the workflow so the production webhook is live.
  3. Copy the node's Production URL — an https:// address (for example https://n8n.example.com/webhook/...).
2

Open the form's Delivery settings

In Static Forms, go to Forms, select the form you want to wire up, click Edit, then open the Delivery tab. Find the Make / n8n card.

3

Paste the webhook URL and save

Paste your n8n production webhook URL into the Webhook URL field and save. The card shows a masked hint of the saved URL and the detected provider (n8n).

4

Send a test

Click Send test to fire a sample submission payload at your workflow so you can confirm it is received and map the data structure to downstream nodes.

5

Add downstream nodes

Connect to databases, APIs, or any service. n8n supports 400+ integrations and custom HTTP requests for processing each submission.

The webhook URL must be a public HTTPS endpoint

For security, the URL must use https:// and resolve to a public host. Static Forms blocks private, loopback, internal, and link-local hosts (SSRF protection), so localhost, *.local, *.internal, and private IP ranges (10.x, 172.16–31.x, 192.168.x, 127.x, 169.254.x) are rejected. A self-hosted n8n instance must therefore be reachable at a public HTTPS URL — n8n Cloud works out of the box.

Self-Hosted Option

n8n can be self-hosted, giving you complete control over your data and workflows — ideal for sensitive data or high-volume scenarios. Just make sure the instance is exposed over public HTTPS so Static Forms can reach the webhook.

Payload Shape

Each submission is delivered as a flat JSON envelope: a stable top-level shape (event, source, submissionId, submittedAt, submittedAtIso, accountId, accountEmail) plus a formData object containing the raw submitted fields. See the Webhook Payload Reference for the full structure.
