Erorr automation workflow

Hello im a beginner, i only learning about n8n this 3 days, for my applying job as a techinal support. i really want this job but there’s not many tutorial that i can find on youtube.

I’m encountering an issue while working on an automation workflow in n8n. The goal is to trigger automation when a deal is marked as “closed-won” in Pipedrive and perform several actions, starting with appending data to a Google Sheet. However, I’ve encountered several issues, and I’m seeking help to resolve them.

Workflow Steps:

  1. Pipedrive Trigger Node: Set to trigger when a deal is updated.
  2. Google Sheets Node: Append a row with client data from the trigger.

Issues Encountered:

  1. The Pipedrive Trigger node doesn’t always retrieve data when a deal is updated, even though I’ve successfully connected the API key.
  • I’ve verified the API key in Postman, and it works.
  • The node shows no output during execution testing.
  1. When testing the Google Sheets Node (set to “Append Row”), no data is added to the sheet even after configuring the fields.
  • The Google Sheets integration is authenticated, and I’ve confirmed the spreadsheet and worksheet ID.

Troubleshooting Steps Taken:

  • Verified API key and connections for both Pipedrive and Google Sheets.
  • Ensured correct settings in Pipedrive Trigger (Deal Updated event with a status filter for “closed-won”).
  • Reauthenticated integrations and recreated the workflow.

I’m using n8n version 1.70.3.

Has anyone encountered similar issues or can provide guidance on debugging these nodes? Any tips or resources would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Jerico_ahmad

Welcome to the community! :balloon:

Would you abe able to share your workflow so we can see how you’ve set the parameters in the different nodes?

How to share a workflow

In your Editor screen, select all the workflow nodes with the mouse and press Ctrl+c. Then here, select the option above </> and paste the workflow between the backticks by pressing Ctrl+v.

“The Pipedrive Trigger node doesn’t always retrieve data when a deal is updated” - but it does sometimes? Or only when the deal is created?

Hey thank you for your respond :), yeah its only retrieve data sometimes, i dont know whats the problem, its say they can’t find the credential but i already regenerate new API on pipedrive and already applied to pipedrive node in n8n. actually the company that gives this challenge is only giving 3 days to solve this. so actually i dont have the hope for this anymore, but i still want to solve this issues.
