Automate Property Listing Data Extraction to Google Sheets
detail.loadingPreview
This n8n workflow efficiently parses raw property listing details, extracts critical information like location, amenities, and descriptions, and automatically saves or updates this structured data into a Google Sheet. It's ideal for anyone needing to centralize detailed property data for analysis or tracking.
About This Workflow
This powerful n8n workflow streamlines the process of extracting complex property listing information from raw text or JSON inputs, such as those obtained from web scraping or API responses. It intelligently identifies and parses key data points including unique listing IDs, URLs, geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude), detailed house rules, property highlights, full descriptions, and amenity lists. Once processed, the workflow seamlessly integrates with Google Sheets, allowing you to append new listings or update existing ones based on their unique ID. This ensures your property database remains current, organized, and readily accessible for analysis or further processing, significantly reducing manual data entry and potential errors.
Key Features
- Intelligent Data Parsing: Automatically extracts structured data from raw, potentially unstructured text or JSON inputs, designed specifically for detailed property listings.
- Comprehensive Detail Extraction: Captures critical information like listing ID, URL, precise location (lat/lng), house rules, property highlights, full descriptions, and amenity groups.
- Robust Error Handling: Includes built-in checks for missing content, invalid JSON, or malformed data to ensure reliable and consistent processing.
- Google Sheets Integration with Upsert: Appends new property listings or updates existing entries in a specified Google Sheet, using the listing ID for accurate matching and maintaining data integrity.
- Flexible and Extensible: The custom code node is easily adaptable to extract and store additional specific property details as your data requirements evolve.
How To Use
- Prepare Input Data: Ensure your previous node (e.g., a web scraper, HTTP request, or LLM response) outputs raw text or a JSON string containing the property listing details. This workflow expects
item.json?.result?.content?.[0]?.textto contain this raw data. - Configure the 'Format Data' Node: This Code node is pre-configured to parse common listing attributes. No configuration is typically needed unless the input path
item.json?.result?.content?.[0]?.textor the structure of thedata.detailsarray from your source changes. The internal logic handles robust data extraction and error checks. - Set Up Google Sheets Credentials: Connect your Google Sheets account to n8n using OAuth2 credentials. This allows n8n to securely access and modify your spreadsheets.
- Configure the 'Clear Google Sheet' Node:
- Select your Google Sheets account credential.
- Choose the correct
Document ID(e.g., your 'airbnb' spreadsheet). If not listed, ensure your n8n Google Drive scope is wide enough to see it. - Specify the
Sheet Name(e.g., '1' orgid=0, typically the first sheet in a new workbook). - Set the
Operationto "Append or Update" to add new entries or modify existing ones. - Verify that
Matching Columnsis configured to "id" to ensure accurate updates based on the unique listing identifier. - Confirm the
Columnsmapping (id,amenities,highlights,houseRules,description) matches the output fields from the 'Format Data' node.
- Run the Workflow: Execute the workflow manually for testing, or set up a trigger (e.g., a scheduled time, webhook, or another workflow) to automatically process your raw listing data and populate your Google Sheet.
