1.1 Workflow description

Title
Send TheHive alerts using SIGNL4
Workflow name
Send TheHive alerts using SIGNL4

This sample workflow allows you to forward alerts from TheHive 5 to SIGNL4 in order to send reliable alerts to your team.

There are two nodes for testing the TheHive connection ("TheHive Read Alerts" and "TheHive Create Alert").

The node "TheHive Webhook Request" will receive requests for new alerts from TheHive. You need to configure the webhook and the notifications in TheHive accordingly.

The node "SIGNL4 Send Alert" sends the alert to SIGNL4 and the node "SIGNL4 Resolve Alert" will close the alert in SIGNL4 in case it has been closed in TheHive.

4. Reproducing the Workflow from Scratch

  1. 1. Download the workflow JSON

    Use the JSON export at /data/workflows/1630/1630.json as the source template for this automation.

  2. 2. Import the template into n8n

    Open n8n, import the downloaded JSON, and review each node before activating the workflow.

  3. 3. Configure credentials and variables

    Replace placeholder credentials, API keys, webhook URLs, account IDs, and environment-specific values with your own settings.

  4. 4. Test with sample data

    Run the workflow manually or in a staging workspace, inspect node output, and confirm downstream systems receive the expected data.

  5. 5. Activate and monitor

    Enable the workflow only after testing, then monitor executions, errors, and rate limits during the first production runs.

5. General Notes & Resources

Review imported nodes carefully before activation. This catalog entry is intended to help you inspect the workflow structure, understand required services, and find related templates faster.

Node names, credentials, schedules, webhook paths, and external service limits may need adjustment for your workspace.
