Automate Product Price Monitoring With Google Sheets & Bright Data
detail.loadingPreview
This workflow automates the process of monitoring product prices from a Google Sheet using Bright Data's web scraping capabilities. It triggers scraping, checks progress, retrieves data, and updates your spreadsheet with the latest pricing information.
About This Workflow
Streamline your product price monitoring with this powerful n8n workflow. It seamlessly integrates with Google Sheets to read product URLs and then leverages Bright Data's robust scraping infrastructure to fetch real-time pricing data. The workflow intelligently handles batch processing of URLs, initiates scraping requests, monitors their progress, and finally updates your Google Sheet with the latest prices, identified by ASIN. This ensures you always have up-to-date product cost information without manual intervention, allowing for informed business decisions and competitive pricing strategies.
Key Features
- Automated Price Tracking: Continuously monitor product prices from a Google Sheet.
- Bright Data Integration: Utilizes Bright Data's advanced web scraping for reliable data collection.
- Google Sheets Synchronization: Reads target URLs and updates pricing directly in your spreadsheet.
- Batch Processing: Efficiently handles multiple product URLs in manageable batches.
- Real-time Updates: Ensures you have the most current pricing information available.
How To Use
- Configure Google Sheets Trigger: Connect your Google account and select the Google Sheet containing your product data. Ensure columns for 'Product URL' and 'ZIP code' are present.
- Set Up Schedule Trigger: Define how often you want the workflow to run (e.g., daily, hourly).
- Process URLs in Batches: The 'Split In Batches' node will group your product URLs into batches for efficient processing.
- Initiate Bright Data Scraping: Configure the 'Initiate request from URLs' node with your Bright Data credentials and the appropriate
dataset_id. Map your 'Product URL' and 'ZIP code' from the Google Sheet to the JSON body. - Monitor Scraping Progress: The 'Check Status by Snapshot ID' node periodically polls Bright Data for the status of your scraping jobs.
- Retrieve and Get Data: Once scraping is complete, the 'Get the data' node fetches the scraped results using the
snapshot_id. - Update Google Sheet: The 'Update the records by ASIN' node matches the scraped data (using ASIN) with your Google Sheet and updates the 'Price' column with the latest fetched price.
