Automated URL Screenshots with Google Sheets and Email Alerts
detail.loadingPreview
Effortlessly capture website screenshots and organize them in Google Drive, with automated email notifications upon completion. This workflow streamlines visual content collection and distribution.
About This Workflow
This n8n workflow automates the process of generating screenshots from a list of URLs stored in a Google Sheet. Upon creation of a new Google Sheet in a designated folder, the workflow triggers, retrieves URLs from 'Sheet1', and uses ScreenshotOne to capture high-resolution images. These screenshots are then uploaded to Google Drive, maintaining their organizational structure. Finally, a confirmation email with a link to the screenshot folder is sent, ensuring you're always updated on your visual assets. It's an ideal solution for teams needing to track website changes, generate reports, or collect visual data efficiently.
Key Features
- Automated Screenshot Generation: Capture screenshots of any URL automatically.
- Google Sheets Integration: Pull URLs directly from your Google Sheets.
- Google Drive Organization: Store screenshots neatly in your Google Drive.
- Email Notifications: Receive instant alerts with links to your captured screenshots.

How To Use
- Set up Google Drive Trigger: Configure the 'spreadsheets file with urls created' node to watch a specific Google Drive folder for new spreadsheet creations.
- Connect Google Sheets: Ensure the 'Get Urls' node is correctly pointed to your Google Sheet and the 'Sheet1' tab.
- Configure ScreenshotOne: Replace '--YOUR SCREENSHOTONE ACCESS KEY--' in the 'Get screenshots' node with your actual ScreenshotOne API key.
- Set Google Drive Upload: In the 'Upload images to the same folder' node, verify the desired Google Drive folder is selected for uploads. The filename will be dynamically generated from the URL.
- Configure Email Alerts: Update the 'Send email with folder link' node with your recipient email address ('--YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS--') and customize the subject and message as needed.
- Enable Workflow: Activate the n8n workflow to start the automated screenshot capture and organization process.
