Webhook and MongoDB: Application Error Event Logger Template
Capture every uncaught error your application throws into a searchable MongoDB log, without standing up a logging service of your own.
What It Builds
This template starts with a Webhook Trigger that your application calls whenever it catches an unhandled error. Each incoming event flows into a MongoDB Connector node in Direct mode, which inserts one document per error with a timestamp, the error message, and the surrounding stack context. The result is a single collection you can query for trends, recent failures, or a specific request.
The Prompt
Paste this into Miraxa and it builds the workflow, connecting the tools for you:
Build a workflow that triggers on a webhook where my app posts uncaught errors, then inserts each event into a MongoDB collection called error_logs with the error message, stack trace, service name, environment, and a received timestamp.
Connectors Used
- Webhook Trigger - receives the error payload your application posts.
- MongoDB - inserts one document per error into your log collection.
Customize It
Change the collection name from error_logs to match your schema, add or drop fields such as userId or requestId, and adjust which environments you log. To alert on critical failures, ask Miraxa to add a Condition node and a Slack or Send Email step before the insert.
Tips
- Secure the Webhook Trigger with an HMAC secret so only your application can write errors.
- Keep the MongoDB node in Direct mode for a fast, predictable insert with no AI cost.
- Index the timestamp and service fields in MongoDB so your error queries stay quick as the collection grows.
