By PDF VectorAutomate incident reporting & alerts with forms, Google Sheets and Gmail
Incident Reporting & Management Workflow (Form + Google Sheets + Email) This workflow automates incident reporting and management for operations teams by connecting a public reporting form with real-time logging in Google Sheets and instant alert emails to your support team. Whenever an incident is reported via the n8n form/webhook, all details are saved securely and immediately and the right people are notified the moment issues occur. It's a fast, scalable solution for reliable incident handling. Who’s It For Renewable energy operators (solar/wind/green energy). Facility and plant managers. Environmental, EHS and safety teams. Technical support and incident response crews. Maintenance & field operations teams. Anyone aiming for compliance-ready, audit-friendly digital issue reporting. How It Works Form Submission: An n8n-powered form (or webhook endpoint) receives incident reports, capturing all key details: reporter info, contact, location, date/time, type, severity, actions taken, photos and more. Log to Google Sheets: Each report is instantly appended as a new row in a secure Google Sheet, creating a searchable, timestamped audit trail. Email Alert (Gmail): An automatic email with incident summary and critical details lands in the support team’s inbox seconds after submission—ensuring your response is always prompt. Workflow Automation: These nodes are linked in n8n, enabling no-code/low-code back-end automation for complete visibility and control. How to Set Up Import Workflow: In n8n, use "Import from File" to upload the workflow JSON provided. Edit Configuration: Update form fields as needed (label, validations, options for severity/category). Enter your Google Sheet ID and sharing settings. Configure Gmail/SMTP credentials and recipient address (example: supportteam@mailinator.com or your own team). Deploy Webhook: Copy your n8n webhook URL and connect it to your reporting interface (form, app, device, etc.). Activate: Enable the workflow in n8n. Submissions are now handled in real time. Test: Submit a sample incident to make sure data logs in Google Sheets and the alert email arrives as expected. Requirements | Tool | Purpose | |-----------------|-----------------------------------| | n8n Instance | Orchestrates the workflow | | Google Account | To access/use Google Sheets | | Gmail/SMTP | For sending incident alerts | | Incident Source | n8n Form, webhook, app or device| How to Customize Form Fields: Add/remove fields or validations in the n8n form for organization-specific needs (e.g., add photos, custom categories). Alert Routing: Use IF nodes to send critical alerts via Slack, SMS or escalate to on-call teams based on severity/type. Backend: Replace Google Sheets with Notion, Airtable, PostgreSQL or other databases. Reporting: Add PDF nodes to auto-generate and send report summaries. Integrations: Push incidents to ticketing, asset tracking or calendar scheduling workflows.
