Connect Mangobeds to Zapier, Make, n8n and More

3 min read

Your bookings shouldn’t live in a silo. With the Automations app, Mangobeds talks to Zapier, Make, n8n, and 5000+ other tools so a new booking can quietly land in Mailchimp, fill a row in Google Sheets, ping a channel in Slack, or update your CRM, with no code on your side.

This guide shows you how to set it up on the platform of your choice.

Why Automations?

Running a property already means juggling a small stack of tools: a mailing list, a spreadsheet, a CRM, a team chat, an accountant’s portal. Most of them want the same handful of facts about every booking, and copy-pasting them by hand doesn’t scale past your first few stays.

With Automations in Mangobeds, you can:

  • Push every booking into your other tools — Mailchimp, Google Sheets, HubSpot, Pipedrive, Airtable, Notion, Slack, Telegram, Discord, anything Zapier or Make supports.
  • React in real time — the event fires the moment a booking is created, updated, or cancelled in Mangobeds.
  • Use the platform you already know — Zapier for the broadest catalogue, Make for visual scenario building, n8n for self-hosted and open-source.
  • No code required — the whole setup is pasting one URL into Mangobeds and clicking through a wizard on the other side.

How it works

The connection works in one direction: Mangobeds sends, your automation platform receives. Whenever something happens to a booking in Mangobeds, we POST a small JSON payload to a URL you’ve given us. Your Zap, Scenario, or Workflow picks it up from there and decides what to do.

You’ll receive one of three event types:

  • booking.created — a new booking has been added.
  • booking.updated — the dates, guests, status, or any other detail changed.
  • booking.cancelled — the booking has been cancelled.

You choose which events you want to subscribe to. The payload contains the booking with all the details you’d expect (guest name and email, dates, units, total, status, and more).

The Automations card in Mangobeds is the doorway in: go to Apps > Automations, follow the guide for your platform below, and come back to Apps > Webhooks to paste the URL when the platform gives it to you.

Setup guide for each platform

Mangobeds sends the same webhook whichever platform you use, so pick the one you already run (or the one whose pricing suits you) and follow its guide.

  • Zapier: The largest catalogue, 6,000+ apps. The safe default if you are not sure.
  • Make: A visual canvas, for automations that branch or write to several tools at once.
  • n8n: Self-hosted, so the booking data never leaves servers you own.

Using something else? Any tool that can receive a webhook works: point it at Apps > Webhooks and you are done.

What Mangobeds sends

Every event Mangobeds delivers is a JSON object with the full booking. You’ll find the fields you need to do most things: guest name and email, check-in and checkout dates, status, total amount, the property and units booked, and metadata about the booking source (direct, Airbnb, Booking.com, etc.).

The exact field names show up in your automation platform’s data preview once the first event arrives, so you can map them onto your action without needing a reference up front. If you want to see the structure ahead of time, the Mangobeds API documentation describes the same booking shape.

Ready to plug Mangobeds into the rest of your stack? Go to Apps > Webhooks, add a webhook with your Zapier, Make, or n8n URL, and let your bookings flow.
