HD 219134 e, also known as HR 8832 e, is an exoplanet orbiting around the K-type star HR 8832 in the constellation of Cassiopeia. It has a mass of 62 Earth Masses, which indicates that the planet is likely a gas giant. The exoplanet was initially detected by the instrument HARPS-N of the Italian Telescopio Nazionale Galileo via the radial velocity method. Unlike HD 219134 b it has not been observed by the Spitzer telescope and thus its radius and density are unknown.

Star HR 8832 (circled) lies just off the "W" shape of the constellation Cassiopeia.
