CertDesk: COI Auto-Issuer & Holder Log

CertDesk: COI Auto-Issuer & Holder Log ships as a ready-to-import n8n automation package: load the bundled workflow JSON, connect the credentials listed on this page, and activate it on self-hosted n8n or n8n Cloud.

Turn certificate-of-insurance requests into delivered certificates in under a minute — policy lookup, limit check, PDF, and a holder log that tells you what to re-issue before renewal.

Issue a certificate straight from an inbound request form, without opening the carrier portal
Check every requested limit and endorsement against the policy before anything is sent
Draft the description of operations automatically in standard certificate wording
Deliver a Google Doc PDF to the certificate holder with a copy to your insured
Route anything unsafe to issue to your producer with the exact gap spelled out
Keep one holder log of every request, issued or not, as your audit trail
Catch expiring policies early with a daily list of the certificates to re-issue

2 coordinated workflows handle different parts of the automation.

2Looks the named insured up on your policy spreadsheet
3Checks the policy is in force and actually meets every limit and endorsement the holder asked for
4AI drafts the description of operations and the cover note in standard certificate language
5Builds the certificate as a Google Doc and emails the PDF link to the holder, with a copy to the insured
6Sends your producer an alert naming the exact gap whenever a request cannot be issued safely
7Logs every request — issued or not — to a holder log, and skips repeat requests inside your duplicate window

Certificate Renewal Watch

Optional

2Re-reads the holder log written by the request workflow
3Keeps only the newest certificate for each insured, holder, and policy
4Flags holders whose policy expires inside your notice window, and separately those already lapsed
5Emails your agency one digest listing exactly which certificates to re-issue and the requirements to repeat
6Records each notice after the email succeeds so the same holder is never chased twice for the same expiration

FAQ

About this template

How long does it take to set up CertDesk: COI Auto-Issuer & Holder Log?

Most people finish in minutes following the guide. If you’ve never used n8n before, budget an hour — the first workflow is always the slowest.

What if I get stuck?

Email support@n8ntemplatestore.com. Free basic support is included with every purchase, and you’ll get a reply from our team within 24 hours. If setup needs more than email, we can schedule a call.

Do I need to pay for Google Sheets?

API costs are separate and go directly to the provider — typically a few dollars a month at most for a solo business. Full breakdown is in the setup guide.

Can I customize the workflow?

Yes, completely. You own the .json — edit nodes, swap in your own prompts, re-wire the logic. Our support team can help you plan customizations over email.

What if it doesn’t work for me?

Refunds are issued only as described in our Refund Policy (https://n8ntemplatestore.com/refund-policy). Or add Setup Service at checkout for a live install and test session — pick any tier you prefer.
