Universal Run Log + Slack Alerts in 90 Minutes
from Headcount Zero · host Jordan
Build a universal automation monitoring system that catches failures before your clients do. Jordan walks through creating a Notion run log database that every workflow in your stack writes to, plus a Slack alerting layer that respects rate limits and only pings you on actual failures, duration spikes, and consecutive error patterns. The complete build takes 90 minutes, works across Make, Zapier, and n8n, and ensures you'll never learn about a broken workflow from a client email again. Includes the exact database schema, Slack app configuration, and post-run webhook snippets for immediate implementation.
