Output Data

Each accepted delivery produces one output item containing the full WooCommerce resource (order, product, customer or coupon) with these fields added:

• _trigger — always woocommerce_webhook
• _timestamp — ISO 8601 timestamp of when the delivery was received
• _webhookEvent — the WooCommerce topic that fired, e.g. order.created
• _webhookResource — the resource part of the topic, e.g. order
• _webhookId — the WooCommerce webhook ID that sent the delivery

Deliveries whose topic does not match the configured Event are acknowledged but do not start the workflow.

Reference the payload downstream by expression, e.g. {{ $json.billing.email }}.

Usage Examples

• Trigger workflow when a new order is placed in WooCommerce
• React to product updates in your WooCommerce store
• Start a workflow when a new customer registers on your store
• Detect coupon creation or deletion in WooCommerce

Example Configuration

Start a workflow on every new order:

{
  "type": "woocommerce_trigger",
  "parameters": {
    "event": "order.created"
  }
}

React to product updates:

{
  "type": "woocommerce_trigger",
  "parameters": {
    "event": "product.updated"
  }
}

Welcome newly registered customers:

{
  "type": "woocommerce_trigger",
  "parameters": {
    "event": "customer.created"
  }
}

Trigger Behavior

• Activation: When the workflow is activated, a webhook endpoint is registered with the service.
• Deactivation: The webhook is automatically unregistered when the workflow is deactivated.
• Payload: The incoming webhook payload is parsed and output as workflow items.
• Verification: Supports signature verification where applicable.

Tips

Receives webhook events from your WooCommerce store. Select the event topic to listen for (e.g., order.created, product.updated). WooCommerce will send the full resource data when the event occurs. Requires WooCommerce API credentials (consumer key and consumer secret). Verifies webhook signatures using HMAC-SHA256.
