The main node supports these resources and operations:

PreRoll Trigger

Webhook-based trigger that starts workflows when events occur in PreRoll:

• episode.status_changed — Episode status updated
• episode.stage_changed — Episode moved to a different pipeline stage
• episode.published — Episode published
• episode.scheduled — Episode scheduled for publishing
• deliverable.submitted — New deliverable submitted for review
• deliverable.approved — Deliverable approved by client
• deliverable.revision_requested — Client requested revisions on a deliverable
• deliverable.resubmitted — Deliverable resubmitted after revision

The trigger node automatically registers and deregisters webhook endpoints in PreRoll when the workflow is activated/deactivated.

Example Workflows

Import-ready workflow templates are in the examples/ directory:

| Workflow | Description | File |
|———-|————-|——|
| Slack Notifications | Get real-time Slack messages for episode and deliverable events | slack-notifications.json |
| Todoist Episode Tasks | Auto-create a Todoist task when a new episode is created | todoist-episode-tasks.json |

To import: in n8n, go to Workflows → Import from File and select the JSON file.

See examples/README.md for setup instructions and a full webhook payload reference.
