  1. 1

    Add the WooCommerce Trigger node

    Start with a WooCommerce Trigger node — connect your WooCommerce store (URL + consumer key/secret) and set Event to order.created. This fires the workflow the moment a new order arrives.

  2. 2

    Map the fields with a Set node

    Add a Set node after the trigger to shape the data cleanly. Create fields: order_id to {{ $json.id }}, email to {{ $json.billing.email }}, total to {{ $json.total }}, and status to {{ $json.status }}. This turns the raw payload into tidy values your destination can use.

  3. 3

    Send it to Airtable

    Add an Airtable node set to operation Create. Connect your Airtable token, pick the Base and Table, and map the fields from the Set node to your Airtable columns. Field names must match your table exactly.

  4. 4

    Activate and test

    Click Activate in the top-right of the canvas. Trigger a test order in WooCommerce, then confirm it appears in Airtable. Once it works, you're done — every new order now flows through automatically.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need any coding skills to set this up?

No. n8n is a visual, drag-and-drop tool. You connect your WooCommerce and Airtable accounts, point the nodes at the right form/sheet/channel, map the fields, and activate. No code required.

Can I send each order to more than one place at once?

Absolutely. Branch the workflow after the Set node: connect it to multiple destination nodes so the same order lands in Airtable and, say, Slack or a spreadsheet simultaneously.
