AI News Scraping System This n8n workflow automates the process of pulling in breaking AI-related headlines from curated RSS feeds, scraping their full content, and saving readable Markdown versions directly to Google Drive. Use cases include: Creating a personal newsletter curation system Automating blog post research workflows Archiving news content for later summarization or AI use How it Works Scheduled Triggers The workflow runs every 3–4 hours using multiple Schedule Trigger nodes. Each trigger targets a different news source (e.g., Google News, OpenAI Blog, Hugging Face, etc.). Fetch and Parse Feeds RSS feeds are fetched via the HTTP Request node. Items from the feed are split into individual entries using the Split Out node. Scrape Article Content Each article URL is sent to the Firecrawl API with a prompt to extract only the main content in Markdown. The scraping skips navigation, headers, footers, and ads. Convert and Save The extracted Markdown is converted into a .md file using the Convert to File node. The file is then uploaded to a Google Drive folder. Good to Know This workflow uses the Firecrawl API for web scraping. Be sure to configure a Generic HTTP Header credential with your API key. Output files are saved in Markdown format You can add more Schedule Trigger + HTTP Request pairs to extend this workflow to additional feeds. Requirements Firecrawl API account for scraping Google Drive account (OAuth2 credentials must be configured in n8n) n8n instance (self-hosted or cloud) Customization Ideas Replace or extend RSS feeds with sources relevant to your niche Load up scraped news stories into a prompt to create new content like TikToks and Reels Add a summarization step using an LLM like GPT or Claude Send the Markdown files to Notion, Slack, or a blog CMS Example Feeds | Feed Name | URL | |------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------| | Google News (AI) | https://rss.app/feeds/v1.1/AkOariu1C7YyUUMv.json | | OpenAI Blog | https://rss.app/feeds/v1.1/xNVg2hbY14Z7Gpva.json | | Hugging Face | https://rss.app/feeds/v1.1/sgHcE2ehHQMTWhrL.json |

Still manually copy-pasting your Tally form responses? What if every submission went straight into Airtable — and the user got an automatic email right after? That’s exactly what this workflow does. No code, no headache — just a simple and fast automation: Tally → Airtable → Gmail. STEP 1 — Capture Tally Form Responses Goal Trigger the workflow automatically every time someone submits your Tally form. What we're setting up A webhook that catches form responses and kicks off the rest of the flow. Steps to follow Add a Webhook node Parameter : Value Method : POST Path : formulaire-tally Authentication : None Respond : Immediately Save the workflow → This will generate a URL like: https://your-workspace.n8n.cloud/webhook-test/formulaire-tally 💡 Use the Test URL first (found under Parameters > Test URL) Head over to Tally Go to your form → Form Settings > Integrations > Webhooks Paste the Test URL into the Webhook field Enable the webhook ✅ Submit a test entry → Tally won’t send anything until a real submission is made. This step is required for n8n to capture the structure. Expected output n8n receives a JSON object containing: General info (IDs, timestamps, etc.) A fields[] array with all the form inputs (name, email, etc.) Each field is nicely structured with a label, key, type, and most importantly, a value. Perfect foundation for the next step: data cleanup. STEP 2 — Clean and Structure the Form Data (Set node) Goal Take the raw data sent by Tally and turn it into clean, readable JSON that's easy to use in the rest of the workflow. Tally sends the responses inside a big array called field. Can you grab a field directly with something like {{$json"fields"["value"]}}? Yes. But a good workflow is like a sock drawer — when everything’s folded and labeled, life’s just easier. So we’re going to clean it up using a Set node. Steps to follow Add a Set node right after the Webhook. Enable the “Keep only set” option. Define the following fields in the Set node: Field name: Expression full_name: {{$json"fields"["value"]}} company_name: {{$json"fields"["value"]}} job_title: {{$json"fields"["value"]}} email: {{$json"fields"["value"]}} phone_number: {{$json"fields"["value"] ?? ""}} submission_date: {{$now.toISOString()}} ⚠️ The order of fields[] depends on your Tally form. If you change the question order, make sure to update these indexes accordingly. Expected output You’ll get a clean, structured JSON like this: Now your data is clear, labeled, and ready for the rest of your workflow. STEP 3 — Save Data in Airtable Goal Every time someone submits your Tally form, their info is automatically added to an Airtable base. No more copy-pasting — everything lands right where it should. Steps to follow Create your Airtable base Start by creating a base named Leads (or whatever you prefer), with a table called Form Submissions. Add the following columns in this exact order so everything maps correctly later: Generate an Airtable token So n8n can send data into your base: Go to 👉 [ https://airtable.com/create/tokens](https://airtable.com/create/tokens ) Click Create token Give it a name (e.g. Tally Automation) Check the following permissions: data.records:read data.records:write schema.bases:read Under Base access, either choose your base manually or select “All current and future bases” Click Create token and copy the generated key Add configure the Airtable node in n8n Node: Airtable Operation: Create Authentication: Personal Access Token Paste your token n8n will suggest your base and table (or you can manually grab the IDs from the URL: https://airtable.com/appXXXXXXXX/tblYYYYYYYY/...) Map your fields Inside the Airtable node, add the following field mappings: Every new Tally form submission automatically creates a new row in your Airtable base. STEP 4 — Send an Automatic Confirmation Email Goal Send a professional email as soon as a form is completed Steps to follow Add a Wait node You don’t want the email to go out instantly — it feels cold and robotic. → Add a Wait node right after Airtable. Mode: Wait for a period of time Delay: 5 to 10 minutes Unit: Minutes Add a Gmail > Send Email node Authentication: OAuth2 Connect a Gmail account (business or test) ⚠️ No API keys here — Gmail requires OAuth. Configure the Send Email node Field Value Credential to connect with Gmail account via OAuth2 Resource : Message Operation : Send To : {{ $json.fields["Email"] }} Subject : Thanks for reaching out! Email Type : HTML Message: (but do the mapping correctly using the Input so that lead receives its name correctly ) End of the Workflow And that’s it — your automation is live! Your lead fills out the Tally form → the info goes to Airtable → they get a clean, professional email without you doing a thing.

This is the workflow that I presented at the April 9, 2021 n8n Meetup. This workflow uses Baserow.io to store registration information collected using n8n as both the web server and the data processor. To get this workflow working properly, you will either need to run it on n8n.cloud or using the on premise version with people having the ability to connect to n8n externally. You will need an account on Baserow.io to store your subscriptions with a table with the following fields: GUID First Name Last Name Email Confirmed

Workflow Overview: This n8n workflow template takes a US phone number as input, validates it, and returns it in multiple standard formats, including handling extensions. It's designed to streamline the process of standardizing phone number data within your automations. How it Works: Input: Accepts a phone number string as input. This number can be in various common formats (e.g., (555) 123-4567, 555.123.4567, +15551234567, 5551234567x890). Formatting Removal: Strips all non-numeric characters to isolate the core number and any potential extension. Validation: Country Code Check:** Verifies if the number starts with the US country code (+1 or 1) or assumes US if no country code is present and the length is correct. Length Check:** Ensures the main number component consists of exactly 10 digits after stripping formatting and the country code. Output Generation (if valid): If the number passes validation, the workflow outputs the phone number in several standardized formats: Number Only:** 5551234567 E.164 Standard:** +15551234567 National Standard:** (555) 123-4567 Full National Standard:** 1 (555) 123-4567 International Standard:** 00-1-555-123-4567 Extension Handling: If an extension is detected in the input, it is separated and provided as: Extension (Number):** 890 Extension (String):** "890" Use Cases: Cleaning and standardizing phone number data in CRM systems. Formatting numbers before sending SMS messages via APIs. Validating user input from forms. Ensuring consistent phone number representation across different applications.

Shopify GraphQL cursor loop Many Shopify GraphQL queries have the ability to return a cursor which you can loop over, however the N8N GraphQL node does not natively have the ability to fetch pages. This simple 3 node workflow displays how to setup a cursor to fetch all items in a collection. Note : The pageSize in the "Shopify, products" node is set to 5 to illustrate how querying by cursor works. In production set this to a much larger value. Also, Update the Endpoint in GraphQL node to reflect your Shopify store.

This is a specific use case. The ElevenLabs guide for Cal.com bookings is comprehensive but I was having trouble with the booking API request. So I built a simple workflow to validate the request and handle the booking creation. Who's this for? You have an ElevenLabs voice agent (or other external service) booking meetings in your Cal.com account and you want more control over the book_meeting tool called by the voice agent. How's it work? Request is received by the webhook trigger node Request sent from ElevenLabs voice agent, or other source Request body contains contact info for the user with whom a meeting will be booked in Cal.com Workflow validates input data for required fields in Cal.com If validation fails, a 400 bad request response is returned If valid, meeting is booked in Cal.com api How do I use this? Create a custom tool in the ElevenLabs agent setup, and connect it to the webhook trigger in this workflow. Add authorization for security. Instruct your voice agent to call this tool after it has collected the required information from the user. Expected input structure Note: Modify this according to your needs, but be sure to reflect your changes in all following nodes. Requirements here depend on required fields in your Cal.com event type. If you have multiple event types in Cal.com with varying required fields, you'll need to handle this in this workflow, and provide appropriate instructions in your *voice agent prompt*. "body": { "attendee_name": "Some Guy", "start": "2025-07-07T13:30:00Z", "attendee_phone": "+12125551234", "attendee_timezone": "America/New_York", "eventTypeId": 123456, "attendee_email": "someguy@example.com", "attendee_company": "Example Inc", "notes": "Discovery call to find synergies." } Modifications Note: ElevenLabs doesn't handle webhook response headers or body, and only recognizes the response code. In other words, if the workflow responds with 400 Bad request that's the only info the voice agent gets back; it doesn't get back any details, eg. "User email still needed". You can modify the structure of the expected webhook request body, and then you should reflect that structure change in all following nodes in the workflow. Ie. if you change attendee_name to attendeeFirstName and attendeeLastName then you need to make this change in the following nodes that use these properties. You can also require or make optional other user data for the Cal.com event type which would reduce or increase the data the voice agent must collect from the user. You can modify the authorization of this webhook to meet your security needs. ElevenLabs has some limitations and you should be mindful of those, but it also offers a secret feature with proves useful. An improvement to this workflow could include a GET request to a CRM or other db to get info on the user interacting with the voice agent. This could reduce some of the data collection needed from the voice agent, like if you already have the user's email address, for example. I believe you can also get the user's phone number if the voice agent is set up on a dial-in interface, so then the agent wouldn't need to ask for it. This all depends on your use case. A savvy step might be prompting the voice agent to get an email, and using the email in this workflow to pull enrichment data from Apollo.io or similar ;-)

This workflow checks a Google Calendar at 8am on the first of each month to get anything that has been marked as a Holiday or Illness. It then merges the count for each person and sends an email with the list. To use this workflow you will need to set the credentials to use for the Google Calendar node and Send Email node. You will also need to select the calendar ID and fill out the information in the send email node. This workflow searches for Events that contain "Holiday" or "Illness" in the summary. If you want to change this you can modify it in the Switch node.

Still reminding people about their tasks manually every morning? Let’s be honest — who wants to start the day chasing teammates about what they need to do? What if Slack could do it for you — automatically, at 9 a.m. every day — without missing anything, and without you lifting a finger? In this tutorial, you’ll build a simple automation with n8n that checks Airtable for active tasks and sends reminders in Slack, daily. Here’s the flow you’ll build: Schedule Trigger → Search Records (Airtable) → Send Message (Slack) STEP 1 : Set up your Airtable base Create a new base called Tasks Add a table (for example: Projects, To-Do, or anything relevant) Add the following fields: | Field | Type | Example | | -------- | ----------------- | ------------------------------------------- | | Title | Text | Finalize quote for Client A | | Assignee | Text | Baptiste Fort | | Email | Email | claire@email.com | | Status | Single select | In Progress / Done | | Due Date | Date (dd/mm/yyyy) | 05/07/2025 | Add a few sample tasks with the status In Progress so you can test your workflow later. STEP 2 Create the trigger in n8n In n8n, add a Schedule Trigger node Set it to run every day at 9:00 a.m.: Trigger interval: Days Days Between Triggers: 1 Trigger at hour: 9 Trigger at minute: 0 This is the node that kicks off the workflow every morning. STEP 3 : Search for active tasks in Airtable This step is all about connecting n8n to your Airtable base and pulling the tasks that are still marked as "In Progress". 1. Add the Airtable node In your n8n workflow, add a node called: Airtable → Search Records You can find it by typing "airtable" in the node search. 2. Create your Airtable Personal Access Token If you haven’t already created your Airtable token, here’s how: 🔗 Go to: https://airtable.com/create/tokens Then: Name your token something like TACHES Under Scopes, check: ✅ data.records:read Under Access, select only the base you want to use (e.g. “Tâches”) Click “Save token” Copy the personal token 3. Set up the Airtable credentials in n8n In the Airtable node: Click on the Credentials field Select: Airtable Personal Access Token Click Create New Paste your token Give it a name like: My Airtable Token Click Save 4. Configure the node Now fill in the parameters: Base: Tâches Table: Produits (or Tâches, depending on what you called it) Operation: Search Filter By Formula: {Statut} = "En cours" Return All: ✅ Yes (make sure it’s enabled) Output Format: Simple 5. Test the node Click “Execute Node”. You should now see all tasks with Statut = "En cours" show up in the output (on the right-hand side of your screen), just like in your screenshot. STEP 4: Send each task to Slack Now that we’ve fetched all the active tasks from Airtable, let’s send them to Slack — one by one — using a loop. Add the Slack node Drag a new node into your n8n workflow and select: Slack → Message Name it something like Send Slack Message You can find it quickly by typing "Slack" into the node search bar. Connect your Slack account If you haven't already connected your Slack credentials: Go to n8n → Credentials Select Slack API Click Create new Paste your Slack Bot Token (from your Slack App OAuth settings) Give it a clear name like Slack Bot n8n Choose the workspace and save Then, in the Slack node, choose this credential from the dropdown. Configure the message Set these parameters: Operation: Send Send Message To: Channel Channel: your Slack channel (e.g. #tous-n8n) Message Type: Simple Text Message Message template Paste the following inside the Message Text field: Message template Paste the following inside the Message Text field: New task for {{ $json.name }}: {{ $json["Titre"] }} 👉 Deadline: {{ $json["Date limite"] }} Example output: New task for Jeremy: Relancer fournisseur X 👉 Deadline: 2025-07-04 Test it Click Execute Node to verify the message is correctly sent in Slack. If the formatting works, you’re ready to run it on schedule 🚀
