  • Customizable error handling and notification thresholds

How It Works

The workflow utilizes an error trigger node to capture system incidents, then routes information through a Postgres logging system. A custom code node evaluates error frequency and severity, implementing intelligent filtering. If error thresholds are exceeded, the workflow can send targeted notifications via Pushover while simultaneously logging detailed information in the database. This prevents notification fatigue and ensures critical issues receive immediate attention.
