Why automate Stackby with n8n?
The Stackby n8n integration gives you access to 4 essential actions โ Append, List, Read, and Delete โ that cover the full spectrum of database operations. This means you can build complete data workflows that create, retrieve, update, and remove records automatically, triggered by events from any of n8n's 400+ integrations.
Significant time savings come first. Instead of manually entering leads from your forms into Stackby, or copying customer data from your CRM, n8n handles these repetitive tasks 24/7. Set up your workflow once, and every new form submission, email, or webhook instantly populates your Stackby tables. Teams report saving hours each week by eliminating manual data entry.
Seamless integration is where n8n truly shines with Stackby. Connect your Stackby stacks to Slack for instant notifications when records change, sync with Google Sheets for backup, pull data from APIs to enrich your databases, or push Stackby data to your email marketing platform. The possibilities are virtually endless. For example: automatically append new Typeform responses to your Stackby Stories table, list all records daily for a Slack summary report, or delete records older than 30 days to keep your database clean. The Stackby n8n integration transforms your static databases into living, breathing automation hubs.

TIP๐ก TIP: Store your Stack IDs in a text file or n8n's static data for quick reference. You'll need to provide the Stack ID for every Stackby action, and finding it each time can slow down your workflow building. Also, consider creating a dedicated API key for n8n automations so you can revoke it independently if needed without affecting other integrations.

Stackby actions available in n8n
01 Action 01Append
The Append action is your go-to for adding new records to your Stackby tables programmatically. Whether you're collecting form submissions, importing data from external APIs, or syncing information from other tools, this action creates new rows in your specified table with the data you provide.
Key parameters: Credential to connect with (required dropdown to select your authenticated Stackby account credentials), Stack ID (required text field where you specify the unique identifier of your target Stack, supports dynamic values via expressions), Table (required text field to define which table receives the new record, e.g., "Stories"), and Columns (optional text field accepting a comma-separated list of column names, e.g., "id,name,description" to specify exactly which fields to populate).
Use cases: Automatically add new leads from Typeform or Google Forms submissions to your Stackby CRM table, sync new Shopify orders into a Stackby inventory tracking stack, or append webhook data from third-party services into a logging table for analysis.

02 Action 02List
The List action retrieves multiple records from your Stackby tables, making it perfect for data synchronization, reporting, and batch processing workflows. When you need to pull all entries or a filtered subset from a table, this is the action to use.
Key parameters: Credential to connect with (required dropdown for selecting your Stackby authentication credentials), Stack ID (required text field for the unique Stack identifier, supports expressions for dynamic selection), Table (required text field specifying the table name to query, e.g., "Stories"), Return All (optional toggle switch that, when enabled, retrieves every record matching your criteria instead of a limited set), and Additional Fields (optional section for adding filters, sorting parameters, or other query refinements).
Use cases: Generate daily digest reports by listing all records and sending summaries to Slack or Discord, sync Stackby data to Google Sheets for backup or external sharing, or feed Stackby records into an AI processing workflow for bulk analysis.

03 Action 03Read
The Read action allows you to retrieve specific records from your Stackby tables, either by providing a record ID or fetching data from a designated table. It's ideal when you need to look up individual entries or pull targeted information for subsequent workflow steps.
Key parameters: Credential to connect with (required dropdown for your Stackby account authentication), Stack ID (required text field for the Stack's unique identifier, accepts expressions for dynamic workflows), Table (required text field to specify the target table, e.g., "Stories"), and ID (optional text field where you can provide a specific record ID; if provided, returns only that single record; if left empty, retrieves multiple records from the table).
Use cases: Look up a specific customer record by ID when processing a support ticket via HubSpot integration, retrieve the latest entry in a table for real-time dashboard updates, or fetch record details to enrich data before sending to another service.

04 Action 04Delete
The Delete action removes records from your Stackby tables based on a specified record ID. This is essential for maintaining data hygiene, automating cleanup processes, or building workflows that manage record lifecycles.
Key parameters: Credential to connect with (required dropdown to select your Stackby account credentials), Stack ID (required text field for the Stack identifier, supports dynamic expressions), Table (required text field specifying which table contains the record to delete, e.g., "Stories"), and ID (required text field where you provide the unique ID of the record to be removed; this must be specified for the deletion to execute).
Use cases: Automatically delete records older than a specified date to keep databases lean, remove canceled orders or unsubscribed contacts in real-time, or build a workflow that archives data to Airtable before deleting from Stackby.
