Automated Financial Market Data Collection to Google Sheets
detail.loadingPreview
Automate the collection of critical financial market data directly into your Google Sheets. This workflow utilizes BrightData to scrape real-time information for a predefined list of companies, ensuring your insights are always current and accessible.
About This Workflow
Stay ahead of market trends with this powerful n8n workflow designed for seamless financial data acquisition. Starting with a customizable list of stock tickers, this automation intelligently triggers a dedicated BrightData scraper (like the Financial Times Scraper) to gather relevant market intelligence. It then proactively monitors the scraping job's progress, waiting until the data is ready. Once complete, the workflow fetches the compiled dataset, aggregates all the information, and exports it directly to your designated Google Sheet, creating an invaluable, self-updating repository for your analysis.
