Wrap Your n8n Webhook in a Try/Catch, Alert on Failure

A webhook that fails silently is worse than one that fails loudly — you don't find out something broke until someone tells you, usually after it's already caused a problem.

The fix:

add an Error Trigger (or a Try/Catch-style branch) to your workflow, and route failures to an HTTP Request node hitting a Slack webhook. Now a failed automation pings you directly instead of failing invisibly in the background.
