n8n Nodes Setup

Once you have these two steps, you can then push the data anywhere you want by adding modules that will update the data in your outreach tool, CRM, spreadsheets, etc. The following Guideflow will show you how to automatically receive your Captain Data job results in n8n using a Webhook and the HTTP Request module using Get a Run’s Results.

​
1. Import the Blueprint

Copy and paste the following JSON into n8n to create your workflow: 
{
  "name": "My workflow",
  "nodes": [
    {
      "parameters": {
        "httpMethod": "POST",
        "path": "58bedae1-79d5-4255-818f-a435b40cca15",
        "options": {}
      },
      "type": "n8n-nodes-base.webhook",
      "typeVersion": 2,
      "position": [0, 0],
      "id": "0c21b50e-c495-4c33-b209-c0e4c60b2ff5",
      "name": "Webhook",
      "webhookId": "58bedae1-79d5-4255-818f-a435b40cca15"
    },
    {
      "parameters": {
        "url": "=https://api.captaindata.co/v3/jobs/{{ $json.body.job_uid }}/results",
        "authentication": "genericCredentialType",
        "genericAuthType": "httpHeaderAuth",
        "sendHeaders": true,
        "headerParameters": {
          "parameters": [
            {
              "name": "x-project-id",
              "value": "YOUR_PROJECT_ID"
            }
          ]
        },
        "options": {}
      },
      "type": "n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest",
      "typeVersion": 4.2,
      "position": [220, 0],
      "id": "ba305839-7c86-4d0d-a20e-fcb850ec88fe",
      "name": "HTTP Request"
    }
  ],
  "connections": {
    "Webhook": {
      "main": [
        [
          {
            "node": "HTTP Request",
            "type": "main",
            "index": 0
          }
        ]
      ]
    }
  },
  "active": false,
  "settings": {
    "executionOrder": "v1"
  },
  "versionId": "3d65a722-8467-4859-a068-0685349ae87d"
}

2. Configure Captain Data

  • Navigate to Captain Data and go to the Webhook tab.
