Overview

The Odoo Opportunity Create operation node allows you to create a new opportunity record in your Odoo CRM system directly from an n8n workflow. This is useful for automating lead management, sales pipeline updates, or integrating external systems (like web forms or marketing tools) with your Odoo CRM. For example, you could automatically create an opportunity when a new lead is captured on your website.

The structure typically includes all fields sent in the request, plus any additional fields populated by Odoo (such as unique ID, timestamps, etc.).

  "name": "New Business Deal",
  "email_from": "[email protected]",
  "expected_revenue": 5000,
  "description": "Initial contact made.",

Dependencies

Odoo instance: You must have access to an Odoo server with the CRM module enabled.
API Credentials: Requires valid Odoo API credentials (url, username, password, and optionally db).
n8n Credentials: Set up an "odooApi" credential in n8n.

Troubleshooting

Invalid Credentials: If authentication fails, you'll see errors like Credentials are not valid. Double-check your Odoo URL, username, password, and database name.
Missing Required Field: If the "Name" property is missing, the node will throw an error indicating that a required parameter is missing.
Field Value Errors: If you provide invalid values (e.g., probability outside 0–100), Odoo may reject the request.
Connection Issues: Network or server issues can result in timeout or connection errors.
