Scrape business emails from Google Maps without the use of any third party APIs

Who is this template for? This workflow template is designed for sales, marketing, and business development professionals who want a cost-effective and efficient way to generate leads. By leveraging n8n core nodes, it scrapes business emails from Google Maps without relying on third-party APIs or paid services, ensuring there are no additional costs involved. Ideal for small business owners, freelancers, and agencies, this template automates the process of collecting contact information for targeted outreach, making it a powerful tool for anyone looking to scale their lead generation efforts without incurring extra expenses. How it works This template streamlines email scraping from Google Maps using only n8n core nodes, ensuring a completely free and self-contained solution. Here’s how it operates: Input Queries You provide a list of queries, each consisting of keywords related to the type of business you want to target and the specific region or subregion you’re interested in. Iterates through Queries The workflow processes each query one at a time. For each query, it triggers a sub-workflow dedicated to handling the scraping tasks. Scrapes Google Maps for URLs Using these queries, the workflow scrapes Google Maps to collect URLs of business listings matching the provided criteria. Fetches HTML Content The workflow then fetches the HTML pages of the collected URLs for further processing. Extracts Emails Using a Code Node with custom JavaScript, the workflow runs regular expressions on the HTML content to extract business email addresses. Setup Add Queries: Open the first node, "Run Workflow" and input a list of queries, each containing the business keywords and the target region. Configure the Google Sheets Node: Open the Google Sheets node and select a document and specific sheet where the scraped results will be saved. Run the workflow: Click on "Test workflow" and watch your Google Sheets document gradually receive business email addresses. Customize as Needed: You can adjust the regular expressions in the Code Node to refine the email extraction logic or add logic to extract other kinds of information.

SSL Expiry Alert with SSL-Checker.io

Use Case Managing SSL certificates manually can be time-consuming and error-prone, often leading to unexpected downtime or security risks due to expired certificates. What This Workflow Does This workflow automatically monitors SSL certificates for a list of websites, checks their expiry status using SSL-Checker.io, and sends timely notifications if a certificate is about to expire.

API Schema Extractor

This workflow automates the process of discovering and extracting APIs from various services, followed by generating custom schemas. It works in three distinct stages: research, extraction, and schema generation, with each stage tracking progress in a Google Sheet. 🙏 Jim Le deserves major kudos for helping to build this sophisticated three-stage workflow that cleverly automates API documentation processing using a smart combination of web scraping, vector search, and LLM technologies. How it works Stage 1 - Research: Fetches pending services from a Google Sheet Uses Google search to find API documentation Employs Apify for web scraping to filter relevant pages Stores webpage contents and metadata in Qdrant (vector database) Updates progress status in Google Sheet (pending, ok, or error) Stage 2 - Extraction: Processes services that completed research successfully Queries vector store to identify products and offerings Further queries for relevant API documentation Uses Gemini (LLM) to extract API operations Records extracted operations in Google Sheet Updates progress status (pending, ok, or error) Stage 3 - Generation: Takes services with successful extraction Retrieves all API operations from the database Combines and groups operations into a custom schema Uploads final schema to Google Drive Updates final status in sheet with file location Ideal for: Development teams needing to catalog multiple APIs API documentation initiatives Creating standardized API schema collections Automating API discovery and documentation Accounts required: Google account (for Sheets and Drive access) Apify account (for web scraping) Qdrant database Gemini API access Set up instructions: Prepare your Google Sheets document with the services information. Here's an example of a Google Sheet – you can copy it and change or remove the values under the columns. Also, make sure to update Google Sheets nodes with the correct Google Sheet ID. Configure Google Sheets OAuth2 credentials, required third-party services (Apify, Qdrant) and Gemini. Ensure proper permissions for Google Drive access.
