⚙️ Advanced Equipment Health Monitor with MS Teams Integration (n8n | API | Google Sheets | MSTeams)

This n8n workflow automatically monitors equipment health by fetching real-time metrics like temperature, voltage and operational status. If any of these parameters cross critical thresholds, an alert is instantly sent to a Microsoft Teams channel and the event is logged in Google Sheets. The workflow runs every 15 minutes by default.

⚡ Quick Implementation Steps

1. Import the workflow JSON into your n8n instance.
2. Open the "Set Config" node and update:
   • API endpoint
   • Teams webhook URL
   • Threshold values
   • Google Sheet ID
3. Activate the workflow to start receiving alerts every 15 minutes.

🎯 Who’s It For

• Renewable energy site operators (solar, wind)
• Plant maintenance and operations teams
• Remote infrastructure monitoring services
• IoT-integrated energy platforms
• Enterprise environments using Microsoft Teams

🛠 Requirements

🧠 What It Does

• Runs every 15 minutes to check the latest equipment metrics.
• Compares values (temperature, voltage, status) against configured thresholds.
• Triggers a Microsoft Teams message when a threshold is breached.
• Appends the alert data to a Google Sheet for logging and review.

🧩 Workflow Components

• Set Node: Configures thresholds, endpoints, webhook URL and Sheet ID.
• Cron Node: Triggers the check every 15 minutes.
• HTTP Request Node: Pulls data from your equipment health monitoring API.
• IF Node: Evaluates if conditions are within or outside defined limits.
• MS Teams Alert Node: Sends structured alerts using a Teams incoming webhook.
• Google Sheets Node: Logs alert details for recordkeeping and analytics.

🔧 How To Set Up – Step-by-Step

1. Import Workflow:

   • In n8n, click Import and upload the provided .json file.

2. Update Configurations:

   • Open the Set Config node.
   • Replace the placeholder values:
     • apiEndpoint: URL to fetch equipment data.
     • teamsWebhookUrl: Your MS Teams channel webhook.
     • temperatureThreshold: Example = 80
     • voltageThreshold: Example = 400
     • googleSheetId: Google Sheet ID (must be shared with n8n service account).

3. Check Webhook Integration:

   • Ensure your MS Teams webhook is properly authorized and points to a live channel.

4. Run & Monitor:

   • Enable the workflow and view logs/alerts.
   • Adjust thresholds as needed.

🧪 How To Customize

➕ Add‑ons (Advanced)

📈 Example Use Cases

1. Monitor solar inverter health for overheating or voltage drops.
2. Alert field engineers via Teams when a wind turbine sensor fails.
3. Log and visualize hardware issues for weekly analytics.
4. Automate SLA compliance tracking through timely notifications.
5. Ensure distributed infrastructure (e.g., substations) are always in operational range.
