Xero and Postgres integration

Save yourself the work of writing custom integrations for Xero and Postgres and use n8n instead. Build adaptable and scalable Finance & Accounting, Development, and Data & Storage workflows that work with your technology stack. All within a building experience you will love.

How to connect Xero and Postgres

  • Step 1: Create a new workflow
  • Step 2: Add and configure nodes
  • Step 3: Connect
  • Step 4: Customize and extend your integration
  • Step 5: Test and activate your workflow

Step 1: Create a new workflow and add the first step

In n8n, click the "Add workflow" button in the Workflows tab to create a new workflow. Add the starting point – a trigger on when your workflow should run: an app event, a schedule, a webhook call, another workflow, an AI chat, or a manual trigger. Sometimes, the HTTP Request node might already serve as your starting point.

Step 2: Add and configure Xero and Postgres nodes

You can find Xero and Postgres in the nodes panel. Drag them onto your workflow canvas, selecting their actions. Click each node, choose a credential, and authenticate to grant n8n access. Configure Xero and Postgres nodes one by one: input data on the left, parameters in the middle, and output data on the right.

Step 3: Connect Xero and Postgres

A connection establishes a link between Xero and Postgres (or vice versa) to route data through the workflow. Data flows from the output of one node to the input of another. You can have single or multiple connections for each node.

Step 4: Customize and extend your Xero and Postgres integration

Use n8n's core nodes such as If, Split Out, Merge, and others to transform and manipulate data. Write custom JavaScript or Python in the Code node and run it as a step in your workflow. Connect Xero and Postgres with any of n8n’s 1000+ integrations, and incorporate advanced AI logic into your workflows.

Step 5: Test and activate your Xero and Postgres workflow

Save and run the workflow to see if everything works as expected. Based on your configuration, data should flow from Xero to Postgres or vice versa. Easily debug your workflow: you can check past executions to isolate and fix the mistake. Once you've tested everything, make sure to save your workflow and activate it.

Automate Xero invoices and payments using webhooks, PostgreSQL and WhatsApp

This workflow automates the full invoicing and payment process using n8n and Xero. It allows businesses to generate invoices, track payments, send WhatsApp notifications, and keep records synced automatically, without manual follow-ups or repetitive admin work.

How It Works

A webhook receives invoice or payment data from your app, form, or system
Xero automatically creates or updates the invoice
Payments are tracked and verified in real time
Clients receive WhatsApp notifications for invoices, reminders, or payments
All records are logged in a database and synced to Google Calendar and Google Sheets
Automated responses confirm successful actions or errors

Everything runs in the background once connected.
