About Postgres Trigger
Postgres Trigger is an n8n node that starts workflows automatically when data changes in a PostgreSQL database. It detects inserts, updates, and deletes on specified tables, giving you real-time automation that responds to database events without polling or manual intervention.
For businesses that run on PostgreSQL — and many do, from SaaS platforms to e-commerce systems — this trigger turns your database into an event source. When a new order is inserted, a customer record is updated, or a row is deleted, the trigger fires and your workflow takes over. No more scheduled jobs that check for changes every few minutes and miss the context of what actually happened.
Our system integration team at Osher Digital uses the Postgres Trigger extensively for clients who need their business logic to react to data changes in real time. We built a workflow for an insurance technology client where database updates from their claims processing system triggered automated notifications and data pipeline refreshes — part of the work described in our BOM weather data pipeline case study. It’s a pattern we apply across industries wherever PostgreSQL sits at the centre of operations.

How it works
We work hand-in-hand with you to implement Postgres Trigger
As Postgres Trigger consultants we work with you hand in hand build more efficient and effective operations. Here’s how we will work with you to automate your business and integrate Postgres Trigger with integrate and automate 800+ tools.
Step 1
Process Audit
We review your PostgreSQL schema, identify the tables and events that matter most to your business processes, and document how data changes currently flow through your systems. This audit also covers your database hosting setup to determine the best trigger configuration.
Step 2
Identify Automation Opportunities
We pinpoint which database events should trigger automated actions — new customer signups, order status changes, inventory updates, or data corrections. Each opportunity is evaluated based on how much manual work it replaces and how time-sensitive the response needs to be.
Step 3
Design Workflows
We design the automation from trigger to final action, including data transformation, conditional routing based on the type of change, and integration with downstream systems. Error handling and retry logic are built in from the start.
Step 4
Implementation
We configure the Postgres Trigger in your n8n instance, set up the database connection with proper security, and build out the full workflow. If using LISTEN/NOTIFY, we create the necessary database triggers and functions on your PostgreSQL server.
Step 5
QA Review
We test with real database operations — inserts, updates, and deletes — to verify the trigger catches every event and the downstream workflow processes each correctly. We test concurrent changes, rapid-fire events, and connection recovery after interruptions.
Step 6
Support & Maintenance
We monitor the trigger and workflow performance after launch, adjusting configurations as your database schema evolves. When new tables need watching or new downstream actions are required, we extend the automation to match your growing needs.
